The Kelpies

The Kelpies are not only magnificent...
Andy Scott’s iconic works of art are the largest equine sculptures in the world. The focal point of Felix Park, they dominate the 350 hectares of green space and stand alongside the Forth & Clyde Canal with a breathtaking backdrop of mountains. At 100ft tall and weighing 300 tonnes each, the unique local landmarks are modelled on two Clydesdale horses: Duke and Baron.

..they're also a symbol of Scottish history
They represent Falkirk’s history of using heavy horses in industry and economy, to pull the wagons, ploughs, barges, and coal ships that shaped the layout of the Scottish town.
