Stonehaven, Scotland AB39 2JU
The Stonehaven Tolbooth Museum, located in the historic Tolbooth building on the harbour front, showcases the rich heritage of Stonehaven through various artefacts, including an original cell door and a unique punishment device known as the Crank. Originally established in the 16th century, the museum has evolved from its beginnings as a storehouse for Dunnottar Castle to a vital community resource since its reopening by local volunteers in 2011.
The museum highlights significant aspects of the town's history, including its role as a prison and courthouse until the late 18th century. With free admission and a commitment to preserving local history, the Stonehaven Tolbooth Museum continues to be a cherished attraction for both residents and visitors alike.
