The Aluminium Story Visitor Centre

Home > Things to See and Do > Attractions > Historic Attractions > Heritage Centres & Ships > The Aluminium Story Visitor Centre

The Aluminium Story Visitor Centre and Library uses imaginative audio-visual displays and a video presentation to tell how aluminium has been produced in Kinlochleven for the past 80 years. Learn about the people and the products they produced from toothpaste tubes and drink cans to space blankets and aeroplane wings.

Outside the Centre is a giant sundial and seating area designed and crafted to reflect the scenery and heritage of the area.
