St Vigeans Stones Museum Pictish Stones, Arbroath, UK
View on MapSt Vigeans was likely an important Pictish religious centre, judging by the number and quality of the Pictish Christian carvings found on the 38 stones found in this small village.
The carved stones were dotted in and around the village church, which sits on a natural mound where a Pictish church or monastery may have once stood. Some stones were even incorporated into the walls of the late medieval church – and a few remain in place.
This is one of the most important collections of Pictish Christian stones. It includes the Drosten Stone, which carries a remarkable inscription and includes a hooded hunter and a squatting imp.
