Lerwick Town Centre and Broch of Clickimin

Highlight • Settlement

Lerwick is today a city of about 7000 inhabitants. In the past, great importance was attached to herring and whaling. Today, oil is mined on the Shetland Islands. The city has a relatively long pedestrian street and many beautiful houses adorn the image of the city.
