Historic Scotland

Historic Scotland is the Scottish equivalent of English Heritage, preserving Scotland's built heritage from prehistoric standing stones to medieval castles and formal great gardens through to Georgian houses, Victorian factories and Second World War defences. When you visit their properties, you can enter a tomb built before the pyramids, discover the glittering Crown Jewels and the Stone of Destiny, or head for the Highlands and Ft. George. And much, much more.

During the summer a programme of battle re-enactments, drama, music and other events brings history to life at many properties.
