The British Golf Museum sits at the heart of the 'Home of Golf' just 67 yards from the famous Old Course and opposite the The Royal and Ancient Golf Clubhouse in St Andrews, Scotland.

Once inside the museum, over 500 years of golfing history unfolds before the visitor's eyes. Imaginative displays are enhanced by stunning interactives in the largest collection of golf memoribilia in Europe. There is a wide range of historic golf equipment, documentation and art work, including items which belonged to celebrated golfers such as Jack Nicklaus, Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo and Laura Davies. After opening to critical acclaim in 1990, the museum went on to win seven major awards. The musuem strives to keep improving its displays and setting very high standards of interpretation, in line with visitor expectations of a 5 star museum.

In 2010, the British Golf Museum will celebrate its 20th Birthday and will welcome back the players and spectators of The Open Championship to St Andrews.

The British Golf Museum is open to the public seven days a week throughout the year.
