Montrose Museum and Art Gallery

Panmure Place | Montrose | DD10 8HF

Montrose Museum opened in 1842, making it one of the first purpose-built museums in Scotland. The museum tells the story of Montrose and its people. From the earliest archaeological finds, the Marquis of Montrose to the Jacobite uprisings and the harbour and maritime trade. It houses a series of displays in the neo-classical building’s spacious atrium, mezzanine and galleries. It was originally designed to resemble a true temple of learning!

The art gallery hosts changing exhibitions as well as a series of afternoon talks, children’s activities and occasional evening events on-site.
