CRAIGMILLAR CASTLE | Outlander, Plots and Famous as a Refuge for Mary, Queen of Scots | Walking Tour

Craigmillar Castle, located in Edinburgh, Scotland, dates back to the early 15th century when it was built as a simple tower house for the Preston family. Over the centuries, it underwent expansions and renovations under the Gilmour family's ownership and gained notoriety as a refuge for Mary, Queen of Scots, during the 16th century.

Abandoned as a residence in the 17th century, it fell into disrepair until restoration efforts in the 19th century helped preserve its historical significance. Today, Craigmillar Castle is a popular tourist attraction, known for its connection to Scottish history and its association with Mary, Queen of Scots.
