Highlight • Castle

To really see the castle properly, you'll have to pay to visit. From the surrounding roads and paths, you'll only see parts of it, but the white building is immediately noticeable.

No, today there are no photos of a mountain peak, nor of a discovery tour in a city or a national park.

Today it's history time! 750 years of history from the Scottish Highlands. You can learn all about it at Blair Castle, built in 1269 and the seat of the Earls and Dukes of Atholl (visitscotland.com/de-de/info/see-do/blair-castle-gardens-p250571).
