Welcome to

Cromarty Courthouse Museum

part of the Hidden Black Isle Trai

Step through the door of this elegant eighteenth century Courthouse and come face to face with the tough Highland justice of the time; visit a prisoner, take part in a trial.

This grade A listed building is the home to the museum of Cromarty and its neighbouring parish, Resolis. Its collections, exhibitions and learning zone provide a fascinating (and free) insight into the past, present and even future of this unique part of Scotland

The Sea Inside

As part of Scotland's year of Coasts and Waters, three local artists, Jacqueline Briggs, Alice Taylor and Izzy Thomson, have been supported by Scottish Natural Heritage's 'Plunge In! Coasts and Waters Community Fund' to work in partnership with Cromarty Courthouse Museum, alongside the communities of Cromarty and Resolis. This project explores our connection with the sea.

The museum is run by the community and managed by volunteers - so your donations are vital in enabling us to open to visitors.  For those living locally why not donate your time and skills to the museum, there is lots for volunteers to do throughout the year.
