Located next to Arbroath's picturesque and historic harbour, within the original shore station for the Bell Rock Lighthouse, Signal Tower Museum tells the story of the lighthouse itself and of the local fishing and maritime industries. 200 years after Robert Stevenson oversaw construction, the Bell Rock Lighthouse still stands as Britain's oldest surviving rock lighthouse, still warning shipping of the jagged Bell Rock. Onshore, the museum exhibitions tell all the tales of the lighthouse, and of the lives of the lighthouse keepers and their families, using models, audio-visual and computer displays and historic objects. Arbroath's fishing industry and maritime trade are also explored.

This museum is on the waterfront at Arbroath. It was built originally to signal to the Bellrock lighthouse, located 6 miles off the coast. Now it houses a display on the history of Arbroath and its fishing industry. During school holidays, craft events for children are often held. Admission is free. Why not take the short walk around Arbroath Harbour while you are there or going the other way, the West Links play park.
