New images of the refurbished former HMP Peterhead have emerged before it is reopened as a museum later this year.
Local engineering firm Score Group snapped up the former jail in 2013 and revealed plans to transform it into a new training centre.
However sections of the prison will also be opened up to the public as a visitor centre called the Admiralty Gateway, with the potential to allow TV and movie studios to use it as a filming location.
The images have been released online ahead of the launch of the new centre in the summer and reveal a modern interior, as well as work on a new lifeboat memorial exhibition.
Those behind the venture are encouraging people to visit to find out the “inside story” of the personnel that staffed the first convict prison in Scotland, which was open from August 1888 to December 2013.
“What better way to learn than to visit and interact with guides in period costumes and see the cells and other key components of this complex that is known worldwide,” the company says.
There are also plans for interactive displays, a recreated convict working area and a cafe overlooking Peterhead bay.
In November the Press and Journal revealed that parts of the site will be opened up to big screen production companies after an advert was placed with scouting business, Location Works.
The firm has previously arranged filming venues for programmes like Game of Thrones and Top Gear.
The first phase of Score Group’s conversion of the site was completed in November last year.
Conrad Ritchie, managing director of Score (Europe) Limited, said: “This centre will produce world leading course content and will help us increase individuals’ competencies in a world where this is increasingly important.
“Phase two will open in the summer of 2016.”
