Please note that due to deep cleaning of the collection, the Tenement House will be closed on Monday 6 and Tuesday 7 January.
Getting here
The steep hill can be avoided by entering Buccleuch Street from Cambridge Street or walking along Sauchiehall Street until Charing Cross, following the pavement to the right, under the footbridge and up the small hill.
The Tenement House is part of ScotRail’s 2-for-1 initiative, which allows two adults entry for the price of one, when they present a valid rail ticket and a paper voucher.

Facilities & access
We have an ongoing programme of accessible content development. Detailed accessibility guides for the most visited Trust places are available on our Accessibility pages as well as links to useful resources.
We’d love you to visit the Euan’s Guide website to review the accessibility of Trust places and tell us (and others) what’s good and where we need to do better.
There are 15 steps with handrails to the reception desk, exhibition, shop area and toilet in the ground-floor flat.
A Braille guidebook is available.
Hot and cold drinks, sweet treats, and gluten and dairy-free options are available.
Children can enjoy playing with authentic household items at the handling table (and working out what they were used for) and taking quizzes around the house.
Large-print information sheets are available.
Meter parking is available around the corner from the Tenement House.
Visitors with a Blue Badge car sticker may park for free.
From the black horsehair chairs, scrubbed kitchen range, household medicines, and the recess beds to the working doorbell and gaslights, there’s so much to discover in this treasure trove of everyday history.
Expert guides are on hand to answer your questions and point out interesting items.
The current fashion exhibition gives further insight into Agnes Toward's life and that of her mother, a dressmaker.
