Tour Scotland Photograph Video Urqhart Castle From Loch Ness


Tour Scotland photograph of Urquhart Castle by Loch Ness, Scotland. Urquhart Castle is surely one of the most picturesquely situated castles in the Scottish Highlands. The present ruins date from the 13th to the 16th centuries, though built on the site of an early medieval fortification. Founded in the 13th century, Urquhart played a role in the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century. It was subsequently held as a royal castle, and was raided on several occasions by the MacDonald Earls of Ross. The castle was granted to the Clan Grant in 1509, though conflict with the MacDonalds continued. Despite a series of further raids the castle was strengthened, only to be largely abandoned by the middle of the 17th century. Urquhart was partially destroyed in 1692 to prevent its use by Jacobite forces
