Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip with Scottish music, of St Fillans Chapel on history visit and trip to Central Highlands Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. The Chapel is an ancient and historically important ruin to the South East of St Fillans village, thought to be a 16th century building on the site of an earlier chapel founded by Saint Fillan. It sits next to St Fillans Hill, also known as Dundurn, a site of great religious significance to both Christians and Picts. The chapel is known to have been abandoned during the Reformation and has since served as the burial place of the Stewarts of Ardvorlich. A place of great historic and religious significance to the region, and associations with one of the most prominent local families. The chapel is thought to have been abandoned at the Reformation and since 1586 it has been used as the burial ground for the Stewarts of Ardvorlich. In 1890 the roof was removed as the interior had been dank and noisesome and there are now some memorials located inside the chapel walls. At Dundurn Parish Church a round font stone, said to be taken from St Fillans Chapel, has been mounted on a wrought iron stand and continues to be used for baptisms today. The cult of St.Fillan, who settled in West Perthshire is widespread in Scotland, especially around Strathearn, where there are several sites related to the saint. @tourscotland #scotland #shorts #highland
