The Nelson Tower was built by the Forres Trafalgar Club in commemoration of Nelson's victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The Tower was opened in 1812 and is the most northerly of all Britain's Nelson monuments. Visitors may climb to the top of the octagonal tower and enjoy spectacular views across the Moray Firth. They can also enjoy the exhibitions of local photographs and Nelson memorabilia shown in the Tower's two upper rooms. Open seasonally.
