😍 From major attractions and tours to hidden gems and outdoor activities, there's a wealth of exciting experiences and events across Stirling for visitors and residents to enjoy.
Each day this week, we're focusing on the theme of history to inspire your next trip to Stirling - and to showcase why the area welcomed record numbers of visitors in 2024.
If you arrive into Stirling by train, a great way to start finding out more about the area’s remarkable history is by crossing the road from the train station and checking out a stunning piece of public art.
At 30ft long, you can’t miss it!
The colourful illustration was created by local artist David Galletly and was unveiled at the start of Stirling’s 900th birthday celebrations last year.
The artwork showcases some of the major moments of Stirling’s rich history over the past 900 years, from the Battle of Bannockburn to the opening of the University of Stirling, and mingles it with legends from the Stirling area such as William Wallace, Robert the Bruce, Sir Andy Murray and Billy Bremner.
David’s design was inspired by suggestions submitted by people of all ages across Stirling.
And once you have checked it out, you can get your picture taken next to the 27-foot long sign that spells out the Stirling name on the other side of the square.
Your visit to Stirling is off to the perfect start!
