The top of the 220 feet high tower, reached by 246 steps. commands one of the finest views in Scotland. Below, 3 halls or chambers house Wallace's famous double-handed broadsword, a talking head of Wallace where you can learn of his struggles to free Scotland from English rule, and a Scottish Hall of Heroes.
