The Montrose Museum is closed for refurbishment and accessibility work. The museum is expected to reopen next weekend, with a new exhibition, Montrose and the Battle of Britain.
The museum holds significant Neolithic and bronze age artefacts, and from Montrose’s later history the collection includes examples of Montrose silver and Dryleys pottery. The collection also includes objects illustrating events in the broader history of Scotland; the Marquis of Montrose, his role as both a Covenanter and Royalist, the role of Montrose in the Jacobite uprising and the history of local militia. The Maritime Gallery has a superb fleet of model shipping, and scrimshaws, whalebone items, flensing tools, harpoons and other relics of the once thriving East coast whaling industry.
