No matter what century someone has looked out of one of our windows, the view of the Royal Mile at sunset will always be amazing. #edinburgh #royalmile #sunset #history #edinburghhistory #scotland #historicbuilsing #johnknoxhouse

Visit the oldest shop on the Royal Mile, our wee book shop. If you are looking for a gift this Christmas, pop into our little bookshop on the ground floor of John Knox House. We have a Unique selection of storytelling books for adults and children. #edinburgh #johknoxhouse #bookshop #christmasgifts

Having been on the Royal Mile since 1470 and a museum since 1853, we have accumulated a lot of things. Here is a guidebook from 1991, after we reopened following restorations. Since we have been open as a museum for over 175 years, our own museum keepsakes become historical items themselves.

We're excited to share with you a new exhibition we have showing some of the artifacts celebrating the life of John Knox house since it opened as a museum in the 1850's. The very first guest book dating back to 1850, and the collection of postcards (The Knox Series) from around 100 years ago.

We wanted to share with you a great review that was recently posted about John Knox house on the "Brown Sign Blogging" site. We always enjoy hearing about our guests time visiting us and hope to hear from more of you soon.

We recently obtained postcards picturing the inside John Knox House from over 100 years ago. Known as the Knox Series by William Hay- curator of John Knox house for around 40 years from 1903. He had a book shop in the same spot we have a book shop. We hope to display the postcards soon.
