Nice little museum to wander round, would probably be a bit of a disappointing experience if you had to pay but since it's free it's worth spending some time here. Lovely view across the sea, beach, and golf courses from the roof terrace.

Freezing cold day. I had time to kill so I took a look. Very peaceful in there. All displays laid out beautifully. The museum covers the history of st Andrews and the university and it's life as well as displays of history mathematics science chemistry etc and discoveries made by people from the university and a separate display on space and exoplanets and the possibility of life on other planets lots of interactive exhibits and one can get completely lost in the displays. I found it very calming and the atmosphere was serene.
The staff take pride in their job and there is a gift shop. Also an upstairs cafe..Entrance is free and the toilets are very modern and clean.I couldn't give it 5 stars because there is a statue of shiva and Parvati gifted to the museum that was unlawfully removed from India in the 1800s. Most enjoyable

Came across this free museam by chance while walking through St Andrews and very glad we did.
4 Galleries to go through detailing the history of St Andrews, medical and anthropology, Engineering and Travel and other cultures. There was also a fish Galleey which was "Out of this world" relating to space, exploration and science fiction.
Really enjoyable wee experience and they had backpacks with stuff for the kids to do in each gallery which was really well thought out.
Really enjoyed the space exhibit which had a wee reading nook with science fiction books to read. Right by it was some original notes from Iain M Banks Culture series which was lovely to see.
All in all a great wee place to visit and see with very friendly and helpful staff.

I really enjoyed writing an article for In Focus Magazine on the Wardlaw Museum's Alien Worlds exhibition. The place is great fun to visit. Thanks to all the help from Museums of the University of St Andrews and Arjen Anthony Lucassen!
The article will explore the museum, music and a lot of space science, both real and fictional!

El Museo Wardlaw: Un viaje en el tiempo
El Museo Wardlaw es una joya escondida en Saint Andrews. Sus colecciones son una ventana al pasado de la universidad más antigua de Escocia. Desde artefactos históricos hasta curiosidades científicas, hay algo para todos los gustos. Las exhibiciones son muy bien cuidadas y las explicaciones son claras, lo que facilita entender la importancia de cada objeto. Si te interesa la historia y la cultura escocesa, ¡no te lo puedes perder! Es una visita que te transportará a través de los siglos.

Totalmente recomendable para gente de todas las edades. Contiene objetos de la historia de la universidad más antigua de Escocía y cientos de artefactos científicos y objetos con muchísima historia. Las vistas desde la terraza son espectaculares. Genial!!! Por cierto, es gratis.

Great exhibition on exoplanets: Alien Worlds, with a nice mix of science and science fiction. Historic scientific instruments and books as well as meteorites (one from Mars!) and interactive displays.

Very nice small museum. We went in because of temporary exhibition, but geeked out over their permanent one also, especially the science parts. Very friendly staff too. Worth a visit, and has a rooftop terrace with a nice view also.
