Step inside the beautifully conserved Abbey Strand Centre for special tours exploring five centuries of history this Doors Open weekend. During your guided tour, discover how the building was used as a weapons store for James V; as courtiers’ lodgings for Mary, Queen of Scots and James VI and I; and as a sanctuary for 6,000 people in debt; a site of taverns and tearooms.

Tours will last approximately 45 minutes and will be allocated on a first come first served basis, with a capacity of 20 per tour.
