In het Canongate tolhuis vind je een puur stukje nostalgie van de dagelijkse beslommeringen van de inwoners in het oude 18e eeuwse Edinburgh. Het monumentale bouwwerk dateert uit 1591 en staat in de beroemde Royal Mile Street. Het pand fungeerde ooit als gemeentehuis, belastingkantoor en gevangenis. De krakende deuren en met spinrag verfraaide sloten verwijzen nog naar de spookachtige gevangeniscellen. Na een ingrijpende restauratie en uitbreiding van de tolpoort, werd in 1954 het gebouw als museum geopend. Virtuele displays, sculpturen en gekostumeerde beelden illustreren thema’s als huishoudelijk werk, sociale activiteiten en politiek. In een mooi atelier is het vakmanschap uit de scheepsbouw, bierbrouwerij en koekjes groothandel te bewonderen. Bekijk vooral de indrukwekkende werkplaats van de boekbinder en de authentieke keuken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":596918,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"tip_category":[3245],"class_list":["post-591457","tip","type-tip","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tip_category-musea"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe People's Story Museum is een museum in Edinburgh<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In The People's Story Museum is het vakmanschap uit de scheepsbouw, bierbrouwerij en koekjes groothandel te bewonderen.
