| General Description | Overlooking the city of Edinburgh from its perch on a tapering hill of volcanic rock, the Edinburgh Castle is instantly recognizable and may be considered Scotland’s most treasured monument. It is the oldest building in Scotland, original fortifications dating back to the early 7th century when it was named "Din Eidyn" or "the stronghold of Eidyn." By this time Edinburgh Castle had become the place of royalty, office to the sheriff of Edinburgh, storehouse and military garrison of the royal gun train, and home to the nation's crown jewels and important documents. |
