|
Follow Aberdeen's Broad Street northwards and then fork left along the short Guest Row to Provost Skene's House, just past the modern Tourist Information Center. Sir George Skene of Rubislaw was a prosperous merchant whose wealth was derived from trade with what is now the Baltic port of Gdansk. He was provost from 1676 to 1685. His home, the oldest standing residence in Aberdeen, now houses the Municipal Museum.
