Towering scrap metal soldier will be star attraction at Perth's Black Watch Museum this summer

An incredible scrap metal sculpture commemorating the dead of the Great War is coming on loan to The Black Watch Castle and Museum this summer, sparking hopes it will make Perth even more of a visitor destination.

Known as ‘The Hauntings’, a giant metal sculpture of a war-weary soldier, will be on display at the award-winning Perth visitor attraction between July 1 and November 12, the only Scottish venue to host the artwork to date.

The Black Watch Castle and Museum asked for the sculpture on loan from its private owners as it is a vivid representation of the many World War One soldier stories currently on display at the museum.
