Montrose is a coastal resort town and former royal burgh in Angus, Scotland. It is situated 38 miles (61 km) north east of Dundee between the mouths of the North and South Esk rivers. It is the northernmost coastal town in Angus and developed at a natural harbour that traded in skins, hides and cured salmon in medieval times. With a population of approximately 12,000, the town functions as a port, but the major employer is GlaxoSmithKline, recently saved from closure.

- Montrose is a coastal resort town and former royal burgh in Angus, Scotland. It is situated 38 miles (61 km) north east of Dundee between the mouths of the North and South Esk rivers. It is the northernmost coastal town in Angus and developed at a natural harbour that traded in skins, hides and cured salmon in medieval times. With a population of approximately 12,000, the town functions as a port, but the major employer is GlaxoSmithKline, recently saved from closure. The skyline of Montrose is dominated by the 220 foot steeple, designed by James Gillespie Graham and built between 1832 and 1834. Montrose is a town with a wealth of architecture, and is a centre for international trade. It is an important commercial port for the thriving oil and gas industry. The town itself has the widest high street in Scotland. This has picturesque closes leading to secluded gardens. The town has a view of a two-mile tidal lagoon, Montrose Basin, which is considered a nature reserve of international importance. It is also the largest inland salt water basin in the UK, and an important habitat for the mute swan. Just outside Montrose is the 18th Century House of Dun, designed by the Scottish architect William Adam (architect) and built in 1730 for David Erskine, 13th Laird of Dun.
- Montrose in Angus ist eine kleine Hafenstadt an der Ostküste Schottlands. Aufgrund alter Namen des Ortes hat man auf eine norwegische Siedlung im Bereich des heutigen Hafens als Ursprung geschlossen. Der Name Montrose kommt vermutlich von Mouth Hrossay einem Ort an der Mündung des Flusses Esk in der Nähe von Rossie Island. Doch die erste urkundliche Erwähnung geschah unter David I.. Der Hafen von Montrose beherbergt die Industriezweige der Nordseeölgesellschaften. Der FC Montrose ist das hiesige Fußball-Team.
- Montrose est un ancien burgh royal d'Écosse situé dans l'actuel council area d'Angus.
- Montrose er en mindre havn og sted for avkobling i fylket Angus på østkysten av Skottland, og ligger midtveis mellom Aberdeen i nord og Dundee i syd.
- Монтро́з — місто на північному сході Шотландії, в області Ангус. Населення міста становить 10 830 осіб.
