Heart of Midlothian Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away on Wheatfield Street, a stone's throw from Tynecastle Park, the Heart of Midlothian Museum is a true treasure for football faithfuls and local history buffs alike. It feels less like a formal institution and more like stepping into a loved one's front room, packed with the cherished memorabilia of a storied past. You'll find everything from the Scottish Cup won in 2012 to century-old team photographs where the players' determined stares seem to follow you around the room. The passion of the volunteers who run the place is infectious, turning a simple visit into a genuine conversation about the club's soul.
Collection Highlights
The gleaming 2012 Scottish Cup takes center stage, but don't miss the old leather footballs and the historic jerseys that tell their own tales of mud, glory, and Edinburgh pride.
Visitor Information
It's free to enter, but check the official Hearts website for opening times as they revolve around match days and stadium tours. Pop in before a game to really feel the buzz.
Architecture & Building
The museum is housed within the main stand of Tynecastle Park, so it’s very much part of the working stadium's fabric rather than a standalone building.
