One of Scotland’s most treasured national icons, the legendary Wallace Sword, has been reinstalled in its home at The National Wallace Monument following a period in secret storage. The 5ft 4” sword has been moved from a location shrouded in secrecy where it was guarded 24 hours a day and has been reinstalled at the Monument by renowned historian and weapons expert David Caldwell. The sword has once again become the centre piece of the Monument’s artifacts, as it takes up residence in The Hall of Heroes. As the sword is considered to be an irreplaceable national treasure, during the tower’s refurbishment, it was kept under guard in an undisclosed location.
