McManus Collections Unit
Barrack Street, Dundee


The McManus Collections Unit is the new permanent home for Dundee’s History, Archaeology and Natural History Collections.

The relocation of these Collections to this facility frees up more space in the McManus Galleries and Museum in Albert Square, for improved exhibition and visitor facilities.

Come along for a fascinating ‘behind-the-scenes’ glimpse of these Collections, with our entertaining tour guides.

Guided Tours of the Old Steeple 2008

Every Wednesday & Saturday
from 4 June – 30 August 2008

The Old Steeple is an architecturally important and imposing building that has stood in Dundee for over 500 years. It has survived attacks by armies and devastating fires, and remains at the heart of the City centre.

Guided tours are being offered to the public every Wednesday and Saturday from 4 June to 30 August 2008. Guides will tell the amazing story of the Steeple, and visitors will see for themselves why Dundee is so lucky to retain this unique medieval building.

Members of the Steeple Church are offering refreshments to visitors after each tour.

Tours at 2.30pm & 3.45pm – each tour lasts approximately one hour.
Admission £2.50 adults; £1.50 concessions; £1 accompanied children under 16 years of age. Children under 16 must be accompanied.
Places are limited, and booking is essential on 01382 432364 (Monday to Friday 9.00am–4.30pm)

Access

Touring the Old Steeple can be strenuous due to the numerous steps between each level. The age and nature of the building unfortunately means that there is no disabled access above the ground level, but staff will be pleased to advise.
