A walking tour led by Matthew Jarron and Erin Farley

This walking tour as part of Black History Month accompanies an illustrated map highlighting sites in Dundee associated with transatlantic and American slavery. Join Local History librarian Erin Farley and University of Dundee museum curator Matthew Jarron on a guided tour of the city centre. Find out how slavery was central to much of Dundee’s economy and visit sites where previously enslaved people came to speak publicly about their experiences.

Please note: The tour starts in the foyer of the Tower Building at the University of Dundee and ends outside The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery & Museum. The route is step-free but involves some uneven surfaces. Please wear appropriate footwear and dress for the weather. Attendees take part at their own risk.

The map has been produced by Leisure & Culture Dundee and University of Dundee Museums in association with Dundee City Council and the Woven Together Dundee project.
