Organisation Details

  • Scottish Fisheries Museum Trust

    Created/last updated: 08/02/2023  

    Aims and objectivesSituated in a wonderful collection of historic buildings on the harbour of a small and beautiful fishing port, we are a charitable trust which has become a national institution with an international reputation. Our principal aim, in all of our efforts with regard to the displays in our extensive museum and our many educational and research activities, is to excite informed interest in the development of the Scottish commercial fishing industry among people of all ages in and beyond Scotland. The core story that we have to tell is the history of how, through a constant process of innovation, the Scottish fisheries became such an important part of the lives of so many Scots. The Museum displays cover virtually every aspect of the industry and community, both at sea and on shore. The variety and beauty of old fishing boats are shown in the models and original vessels, including the Reaper and White Wing that still go to sea. Our learning and activity programmes engage audiences of all ages with the fascinating history of one of Scotland's major industries and we provide volunteering opportunities from customer service to archive work to boatbuilding.
