Fraserburgh Old Parish Church, Category B listed church building in Saltoun Square, Fraserburgh, Scotland
Fraserburgh Old Parish Church is a church building located in Saltoun Square, constructed with traditional Scottish architectural features. The structure dates from the early 1800s and displays carefully crafted stonework across its exterior.
The congregation was founded in 1571, but the current building was constructed in 1803 to replace the original 16th-century structure. This new construction reflected the growing needs of a thriving port community.
The church holds memorials and plaques that reflect the town's deep ties to fishing, a trade that once defined life here. Walking through the building, visitors notice how this maritime connection is woven into the religious space.
The building is open during regular Sunday services and welcomes visitors on weekdays through the main entrance at Saltoun Square. It is advisable to check ahead about any private events before planning a visit.
During World War II, the building sustained damage from bombing raids, and traces of these impacts remain visible on parts of the exterior walls today. These marks tell a story of local resilience during a difficult period.
