This bridge collapsed Dec 2025.

The most impressive of all of the Pictish symbol stones

Difficult to appreciate how impressive this is from the description and numbers. Great that this amazing piece of ancient history is being well looked after now.

Impressive 7 m high Pictish stone monolith from the 5th-9th century under a glass case.

Wonderful cafe with extremely friendly service. Here you can not only get delicious breakfast variations but also very tasty cakes.

Sadly, as of early 2024, this place is now closed permanently.

Elgin Cathedral, a historic ruin in northeast Scotland, was dedicated to the Holy Trinity. It was established in 1224 on land granted by King Alexander II and stood outside the burgh of Elgin, close to the River Lossie. It replaced the cathedral at Spynie located 3 kilometres (2 mi) to the north, which was served by a small chapter of eight clerics. By 1226, the new and developing cathedral was staffed with 18 canons, a number that increased to 23 by 1242. A damaging fire in 1270 led to significant enlargement. It remained unscathed during the Wars of Scottish Independence but suffered extensive fire damage in 1390 when attacked by Robert III's brother Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, also known as the Wolf of Badenoch. In 1402, the cathedral precinct faced another incendiary attack by the Lord of the Isles followers.

Didn't go into the grounds of the cathedral but was pretty satisfied with the views afforded from the paths around it. Plenty of street parking around the Cathedral.
