This museum is housed in the Kirriemuir Town House built in 1604 and is open Monday to Saturday 10am-5pm April to September and half days on Thursdays during the winter months. The location is the town centre of Kirriemuir, Angus, Scotland (Scottish Gaelic: An Ceathramh Mòr, Aonghas). The museum gives an introduction to the history, archaeology, culture and natural environment of Kirrie and Glen Prosen, Glen Isla, Glen Clova and Glen Doll. Amongst the many artefacts is one of the eighteen early medieval Pictish Carved Stones found in Kirriemuir, the other seventeen being at the Meffan Museum at Forfar.
