Trinity House

Dive into Leith?s famous maritime history and discover an outstanding collection of maritime treasures. Once the base of the Incorporation of Mariners and Shipmasters, Trinity House has proudly stood in Leith?s Kirkgate since at least 1555. Established to help sailors in need, it grew to play a key role in the development of the port and is a reminder of Leith?s great heritage. Explore the building for yourself and step into a nautical world.

This year visitors can create their own collage masterpiece based on the painting of Loch Carron of Glasgow, which sailed between Scotland and Australia and is currently on loan to the National Galleries Scotland. There will be craft activities for children and families, opportunities to handle objects from the collection, a self-guided tour, and visual displays throughout.
