Edinburgh

The Edinburgh Trades Fund 听houses a collection of artefacts pertaining to the ancient Incorporated Trades of Edinburgh. 听The collection provides a unique insight into the establishment, organisation and importance of the Incorporated Trades in the economic and social life of Edinburgh. 听This is especially true of the period when the trades had a major role in the governance of the city from the 15th to the early 19th centuries. 听There are several unique historical treasures intimately concerned with the history of the city, the most important being the Blue Blanket.

Take the opportunity to walk through our building learning about our collection from the volunteer guides and display boards.
