Join us for a guided tour and discover the gory story of Broughty Castles military past.
The Castle, which dates from the fifteenth century, was captured and occupied by an English army in 1547. The tower still has the battle scars from its encounter with General Monck in 1651!
In the middle of the nineteenth century a nationwide panic over the threat of foreign invasion led to Broughty Castle being restored as a military fortress.
Find out about the guns that lined its ramparts, and the lives and gory deaths of its attackers and defenders!
