Above the city of Stirling

The William Wallace Monument stands on Abbey Craig above Stirling. It is a prominent landmark in the Central Scotland landscape and a place many visitors recognise from the road and surrounding viewpoints.

The monument commemorates Sir William Wallace and sits close to key sites connected with Scotland’s medieval history. A visit is separate from any private-tour booking and depends on the confirmed route, time available and the attraction’s own arrangements.

Planning your visit

Check admission, access, parking and opening information directly with the attraction before travelling. If this is a priority for your group, discuss it when planning your day.
