10 of the best museums and galleries in Edinburgh | Travel. The Museum on the Mound There has long been some form of museum in the bowels of the Bank of Scotland building on the Mound, now the Scottish HQ of Lloyds, but until 2006 entry was by appointment only and the displays were limited to one room. The Museum on the Mound opened five years ago, pre-financial crisis, and there is bleak humour to be found in the displays and their accompanying text: "Not just a respectable career, it also offered an opportunity for more leisurely pursuits … See what 'high jinks' staff got up to in their free time.

" There are seven rooms in total, detailing how money evolved over 4,000 years. One case holds £1m in used £20 notes.• The Mound, 0131-243 5464, museumonthemound.com, free.
