This 19th-century monument commemorates the life and legacy of Scotland's national hero, William Wallace. Standing 67 feet tall, the sandstone tower offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside from its top platform. The monument houses a museum showcasing exhibits on Wallace's life, including artifacts, interactive displays, and a recreated medieval tunnel. Visitors can explore the adjacent Wallace's Well, a natural spring believed to be the site of Wallace's birth, and wander through the surrounding scenic woodland.
Spectacular view from the top if you are lucky to catch a sunny day. The wind is very strong at the top, if you are light weighted, you may need to have a strong grip or some stones in your pockets.
I am hoping to visit this monument in the next few day's already visited Necropolis Glasgow with the word's inscribed though my body is broken I will reign on for the people of Scotland they will know Freedom.
Very interesting. Learned about William Wallace and other Scottish heroes. Nice climb to the top with great views of Stirling.
