Take a tour of Summerhall and discover its fascinating history. Did you know that one of the first known occupants of the site was a family run brewery established in the 18th century? The main iconic building we know today housed The Royal Dick School of Veterinary Studies for nearly 100 years. Visit Summerhall’s labs and lecture theatres and learn about the notable alumni who contributed to science around the world.

 

Please note that some rooms within Summerhall are only accessible via stairs so tours will be adapted to the needs of each group.
