The Chapter House Museum, located in Dunkeld Cathedral, is a permanent exhibition telling the history of the town and the redevelopment of the reformed church.

The Cathedral Chapter House was built in 1457 and served as a sacristy and meeting place for 100 years.  After the Reformation, when the Dukes of Atholl became responsible for the upkeep of the church they used the Chapter House as their Mausoleum and it still contains some magnificent monuments and memorials.  The Atholl coat of arms is mounted above the entrance door and former members of the family lie buried in an underfloor vault.

The Cathedral grounds are open and visitors can walk around the Cathedral.  At key points they can scan QR codes with their mobile phones to hear or read dramatised stories which tell of the people and history associated with this ancient building.
