Maggie Law Maritime Museum
About This Museum
You'd never guess that this little stone building, tucked away in a fishing village, holds the entire salty soul of Gourdon. It doesn't just tell the story of the sea; it tells the story of every family who ever cast a net from these shores. Inside, you can almost hear the creak of timber and the cry of gulls. It’s a deeply personal tribute to a way of life that defined the community.
Collection Highlights
Look for the beautifully detailed 'Fifie' fishing boat models and the old black-and-white photos of fishermen with windswept faces. Don't miss the delicate lace berths, painstakingly made by sailors to pass the long hours at sea.
Visitor Information
It's a small, volunteer-run gem, so it's best to check their social media for opening times before you pop in. You'll find it right on William Street, the heart of the old village.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a traditional Scottish harled stone building that feels as much a part of the landscape as the harbour itself.
