Built between 1569 & 1574 this was the palace, castle and home of the Earl of Orkney in the late 1500's. Its use was short lived however with the overthrow of the Stewart Earls in 1615. Records from Cromwell’s troops in 1653 suggest that the castle was already falling into disrepair and the roof was down by 1700.
Today it's a surprisingly intact ruin which you can explore. Managed by Historic Environment Scotland it's open all year and free to visit.

The Earls' Palace stands by the shore of Birsay Bay, and was constructed in the 1570-80's around a central courtyard and well, with large stone towers at three of the four corners, making it as much a fortress as a palace.
The site is anaged by Historic Environment Scotland and is open all year and free to visit.

Place with a long history. A 15 minute stop is enough. When you're up there, be sure to check out Brough of Bersay and Barony Mill.
