Meigle Sculptured Stone Museum, Medieval stone museum in Meigle, Scotland.

The Meigle Sculptured Stone Museum displays 27 carved Pictish stones inside a former parish school building from 1844 in eastern Scotland.

The collection includes stones rescued from a church fire in 1869, indicating the presence of an important religious center during the reign of King Pherath.

The carved stones feature Christian monuments depicting Pictish warrior aristocracy with weapons, hunting scenes, and symbolic religious imagery from the medieval period.

The museum operates from April through September, Sunday to Wednesday between 10 AM and 4:30 PM, with admission prices ranging from £4.50 to £7.50.

Stone Meigle 2 connects to local folklore through its depiction of Daniel with lions, traditionally associated with Vanora, the alleged wife of King Arthur.
