This historic building, which dates back to 1470, is noted for its distinctive medieval architecture, including wooden galleries and a traditional timber façade. While it is uncertain if John Knox ever actually lived there, the house serves as a museum dedicated to his life and the turbulent period of the Scottish Reformation.
