Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip, with Scottish music, of the replica of of the life size tomb built for Mary Queen of Scots at Westminster Abbey by her son King James VI on ancestry, genealogy, history visit and trip to Edinburgh, Britain, United Kingdom. There are few known physical relics of Mary. At her execution in Fotheringhay Castle, a fire was burning, and her clothing was immediately consigned into it. The English state was determined to suppress the memory of Mary, any proliferation of material relics, and her mortal remains were swiftly buried. Mary, Queen of Scots, was a prominent figure in 16th century European history, reigning as Queen of Scotland from 1542 to 1567 and briefly as Queen Consort of France. Born into the House of Stuart, she became Queen at just six days old following her father's death. Her life was marked by political intrigue, religious conflict, and ultimately, imprisonment and execution in England. Mary was born on December 8, 1542, at Linlithgow Palace in Scotland. Mary was implicated in plots to overthrow Elizabeth and was eventually executed for treason in 1587
