- Edinburgh Castle Esplanade - A key area used both for the castle’s defense and for significant commemorations and historical events. Our deep dive into the history of Edinburgh Castle begins here, focusing on the fortress’s strategic position and the “Spur.”
- Edinburgh Castle - Scotland’s most visited attraction has also been the ultimate stage of its history. From ancient peoples like the Celts and Romans to legendary figures such as Robert the Bruce, William Wallace, and Mary Stuart’s royal court, all have contributed to its legacy. Within its walls, you’ll find the Scottish Crown Jewels (the Honours of Scotland) and the Stone of Destiny, along with museums dedicated to the British army and military life.
Built on an extinct volcano, life began to flourish at this site as early as 900 BC, with the first fortress appearing around 600 AD. Over time, wood was replaced by stone, transforming the site into a royal refuge and a prime target for the English. Since the last Jacobite siege in 1745, the fortification has shifted from its defensive role to become a national symbol, now welcoming over a million visitors each year.

Este castillo fue edificado sobre un volcán y la vida comenzó a desarrollarse a su alrededor aproximadamente en el 900 a.C. A partir del 600 d.C., surgió la primera fortaleza. La madera, por lo tanto, se transformó en piedra, en refugio de reyes y en el principal objetivo de los ingleses. Desde el último asedio jacobita en 1745, esta fortificación dejó de tener funciones defensivas para convertirse en un símbolo nacional que hoy en día recibe a más de un millón de visitantes cada año.
