Known for
The Falkirk Wheel (world's only rotating boat lift), the Kelpies (world's largest equine sculptures), the Antonine Wall UNESCO World Heritage Site, and central Scotland's most dramatically engineered town
A little history
Falkirk sits at the crossroads of Scottish history on the Antonine Wall. The Falkirk Wheel (2002) is the world's only rotating boat lift. The Kelpies — 30-metre steel horse heads by Andy Scott — opened in 2013 as the largest equine sculptures on earth.
The Falkirk Wheel is extraordinary engineering — watching 600 tonnes of water rotate is unforgettable. The Kelpies at The Helix are spectacular at any time. The Antonine Wall sections for Roman history.
