The Signal Tower Museum in Arbroath just has to be one of the very best museums in Scotland. What a magical place! Such friendly staff too. I am humbled by Arbroath's history and the potential of its future. If you haven't been there don't miss it. You may need to book to view the signal tower lighthouse at the top of the building. On most days the guided tour is at 1PM but best to phone in advance.

This is quite a small museum but absolutely packed with information about lighthouses and the life of the keepers, together with lots of interesting artefacts. We stumbled on it when we were in Arbroath for the day and exploring the harbour area. It's quite amazing what the keepers and the builders went through to help save ships along that coast.

We had a wonderful time at the Signal Tower Museum with our family. It was a short stop but definitely worth it. The scavenger hunt for the kids was particularly enjoyable and kept them engaged. Additionally, on a clear day, it's amazing to see the bell rock lighthouse far out at sea. Highly recommended! The personal was delightful!

Really enjoyable visit. Recommended by our hotel and well worth it. We also visited the Fish Hoos and East Scryne Fruit. Both amazing. The museum is really interesting with lots of info.
