Castles in Scotland

Castles in Scotland is a link page for any castle in Scotland.

Note that there are an estimated 3000 castles in Scotland, ranging in size from royal households and large military outposts with hundreds of rooms to simple fortified farmhouses. Many of these castles are now ruins, and some are known only through historical records. The list below is therefore not exhaustive.
