Reviews
This is an old derelict church tucked away amongst modern houses. We found it by accident and it was a very peaceful and fascinating place. Sure, you can’t go inside, it is falling apart after all, but walking around it, reading the old gravestones, it’s a very pleasant experience. We were the only ones there, too which is not surprising since it was afternoon on a weekday out of ‘tourist’ season. If you’re in Thurso it’s worth a visit!
If you enjoy history and old relics then visit is a must.
Nice little ruined church tucked away surrounded by houses.nWe really liked looking at the tracery in the large arched window. It's so worn it looks so delicate and fragile. We also noticed the design is slightly off centre, but what amazing work. Imagine trying to create that now.nA lot of the headstones have weathered and the stone has laminated, but everything wears away eventually.
There are volunteers that show you around and give detailed history on the place which we weren't expecting- very informative
Old St. Peter's Church in Thurso is a hidden gem steeped in history and charm. Its ancient walls whisper tales of centuries past, offering visitors a glimpse into Scotland's rich heritage. The peaceful atmosphere and architectural beauty make it a tranquil spot for reflection and exploration. A must-visit for history buffs and those seeking a serene retreat in the heart of Thurso.
