Kinnaird Head Lighthouse

There are two lighthouses located on Kinnaird Head, in Fraserburgh, Scotland: a historical one built in a converted castle; and its modern replacement, built in 1991. The original lighthouse now forms part of the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses. The museum collection includes technical equipment relating to lighthouse illumination, navigation, and way making, as well as personal effects and small items that belonged to individual lightkeepers, including uniforms and hand-made model ships. Archival documents and photography from the operation of the lighthouse by the Northern Lighthouse Board are also part of the museum collection. The entire collection was recognised as nationally significant by the Scottish Government in June 2007.
