North Lanarkshire Heritage Centre, Cultural heritage museum in Motherwell, Scotland.
The North Lanarkshire Heritage Centre spans multiple floors and contains exhibition spaces, research facilities, and a viewing tower overlooking the surrounding region.
The facility opened in 1996 as Motherwell Heritage Centre and received its current name in 2012 when all regional archives were consolidated from Cumbernauld.
The center maintains extensive collections documenting North Lanarkshire's industrial legacy, focusing on coal mining, steel production, and textile manufacturing history.
Visitors can access the archives and local studies room Monday through Saturday from 12 to 4 PM, with reservation options available by phone or email.
The fifth-floor observation platform provides views extending to the Clyde Valley, Campsie Fells, and in clear weather, the distant peak of Ben Lomond.
