Perth Museum in Scotland is housed in the former Perth City Hall (1911) which played host to "political rallies, temperance meetings, exhibitions, indoor roller-skating, magic shows, concerts, anti-slavery lectures, operas, and plays". The building became vacant in 2005 and was transformed by Mecanoo into an elegant museum which opened in 2024. The museum's centrepiece is the Stone of Destiny (aka the Stone of Scone), a "powerful symbol of Scotland".
