The Trustees of MKT will keep you updated with news and events over the coming season.

The Heritage Centre is open throughout the summer months, from Monday 4th April 2022, daily from 2pm to 4pm. We look forward to seeing you soon!

We are planning new exhibitions for the new season ahead:

• Refreshing the displays which will now include "A Journey Through Time" of our local area and updated research on some of the local families and prominent figures.

Some new displays including:

• The Reverend Alexander Duff, Victorian missionary and educator left Auchnahyle and Balnakeilly for the warmer climes of India and managed to get himself and his new wife shipwrecked, twice! We hope to be able to display some details of him and the ships “Lady Holland” (wrecked in South Africa) and the “Moira” (ran aground on the Hooghly but salvaged) when we do open.
• This will berth alongside a new display about the barque (a four-masted sailing ship) Pitlochry built in Dundee in 1894 to carry “nitrates” from Chile to Europe. In 1903 she held the record for the fastest trip from Chile to Europe round Cape Horn.
• Check out our new interactive kids' corners, new for 2022!

Entry charge is £3 per person. No charge for children under 16 years of age accompanied by an adult. All current MKT members may enter for free.

There is a regular local bus service in Pitlochry and a bus stop is within a few minutes walk of the Heritage Centre in Moulin Square. When we re-open, Old Oak Genealogy will continue to be available at the Centre by arrangement. Contact directly via oldoakgenealogy.com.  Moulin Yarns will provide a live spinning demonstration on Monday afternoons.
