Cultybraggan Camp
Perth & Kinross
Cultybraggan Camp (Camp 21) is the last remaining Prisoner of War Camp from the Second World War in Scotland. We have 90 Nissen Huts from the period and our museum in housed in the A listed brick build jailblock. Cultybraggan was used by the British army as a training camp until the early 2000s and is now owned by the Community of Comrie as a very unique community hub.
Cultybraggan Camp was born out of conflict. It housed 1000s of prisoners of war from 1941 to 1947. It then began a new life as an army training camp until the early 2000s. Thousands of cadets and soldiers spent time here from the 1950s onwards. In 2007 it was bought by the Community of Comrie and now houses 9 charities and community groups, 45 local businesses, self-catering huts, a community orchard and woodland. The heritage of the camp is shared through our museum and the activities of Comrie Heritage Group. Cultybraggan Camp is the very definition of revive, resist, reimagine.
For Doors Open Days there will be walking tours of the camp both days. The museum will also be open for self-guided and guided tours and German prisoner reenactments in the adjacent Nissen hut.
Walking tours at 11am, 1pm, 2pm and 3pm - a maximum of 12 people per tour.
