Administrative history
Founded in
1807,
The Hunterian is Scotland's oldest public
museum and home to one of the largest collections outside the National Museums.
The Hunterian is one of the leading university museums in the world and its
collections have been Recognised as a Collection of National Significance.
The Hunterian is the legacy of
Dr William
Hunter (1718-1783), pioneering obstetrician and teacher with a
passion for collecting, who studied at the
University of Glasgow from 1731 to 1736. In
1783 Hunter bequeathed his substantial collections of
anatomical and pathological preparations, coins, books, manuscripts, botanical,
geological and other materials to the University of Glasgow. He also gifted
£8,000 towards the cost of building a museum in which to house his vast
collection, which the University named the "Hunterian" in his
honour.
The Hunterian Museum opened its doors in 1807 at it's first
site, a classical style building designed by William Stark, in the east end
near Glasgow Cathedral. In 1870, when the University moved to Gilmorehill, in
the west end, the Hunterian collections were relocated to a custom-built museum
in the Gilbert Scott Building. The collections have grown considerably since
the Museum's foundation, and now include some of the most important work
by artists such as Charles Rennie Mackintosh and James McNeill Whistler, as
well as superb books, manuscripts, geological, zoological, anatomical,
archaeological, ethnographic and scientific instrument collections. A new
Collection Study Centre opened at the Kelvin Hall in 2016.
