The Crown

On reaching the top of the famous spiral staircase you will be rewarded with panoramic views in all directions, across Scotland’s historic heartland. Look out over the landscape of the Forth Valley – which has witnessed so many important moments in the story of Scotland.

Experience breathtaking views

It is one of the finest sights Scotland has to offer, from Ben Lomond and the Trossachs in the West, and through the Forth Valley past the city of Stirling and the Ochil Hills to the Pentland Hills in the East.

The panoramic display panels identify the site of the famous Battle of Stirling Bridge and highlight other prominent geographical features in the area.
