Monteath Mausoleum

6 September 2026 (10:00 - 16:00)

Scottish Borders

In Person

Unique Victorian mausoleum building with stone lions guarding the entrance and two huge stone angels in the crypt. The domed roof contains glass stars which cast an eerie light onto the sarcophagus. Carefully restored in 2018 by volunteers, this architectural gem has grand views of the Scottish Borders in all directions.

For Doors Open Days tour guides will be available all day to show visitors around the building and inside the crypt.
