Dominating the city from its volcanic rock, Edinburgh Castle is one of the oldest fortified places in Europe. This natural stronghold has been occupied for thousands of years, shifting its shape as it was adapted for new uses and against new threats.
The castle has long been a royal residence and a focus for national pride – a place of strength where kings and queens could enjoy relative safety in turbulent times, and national treasures could be securely stored.
It has been at the heart of Scotland’s major events, fought over, held and recaptured time after time. In fact, it is the most besieged place in Great Britain, and remained in military use well into the past century.
Over the years Edinburgh Castle has attracted countless visitors with an interest in Scotland’s dramatic history. This book invites visitors to explore the castle and learn about its extraordinary history and discover some of its fascinating secrets.
