Broughty Castle Museum
Broughty Castle Museum
This 15th Century coastal fort has faced many battles and sieges, and was rebuilt in the 19th Century as part of the River Tay's coastal defence system. It now houses a fascinating museum featuring displays on the life and times of Broughty Ferry, its people, the environment and the wildlife that lives close by. Don't miss the Orchar Gallery, featuring a selection of paintings from the amazing Orchar Collection. Enjoy the spectacular views over the River Tay from the observation post - you may even be able to spot a dolphin or two! Refreshments. Gift Shop. Tourist Information also available at our NIP (Neighbourhood Information Point). Admission free.
As a fortified and listed building, Broughty Castle has very restricted access for people whose mobility is limited. Due to the spiral staircase in the Castle, we regret that access for wheelchair-users is not possible.
