Whitburn Community Museum

The permanent exhibition tells the story of Whitburn and its industrial and social past. Coal mining was very important in Whitburn but other industries from hand loom weaving to the manufacture of Levi’s jeans also feature. Aspects of social history from the Baillie family on Polkemmet Estate to the leisure pursuits of miners are also covered. There is also a small temporary exhibition area which hosts West Lothian Council’s touring exhibitions.
