Signal Tower Museum, Arbroath

Highlight • Monument

Why not visit the Signal Tower Museum, just a stone's throw from the active harbour in Arbroath? These buildings once housed the station for Bell Rock Lighthouse, and the signal tower was decommissioned in 1955, some 142 years from when it was built.

Now you can visit the museum to learn about the region's rich maritime history and importance.
