Informations supplémentaires

Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness, one of the most famous ruins in Scotland, and quite probably the world! The castle itself has a long history, the ruins visited today date from between the 13th and 16th Century and represent the medieval phase of occupation and was partially destroyed in the first Jacobite uprising to prevent it's use by the forces loyal to the Old Pretender. Prior to this there was a much older vitrified fort on the site which was either the royal residence of the Pictish King Bridei son of Maelchon or, more likely, Emcath, a nobleman converted to Christianity by Saint Columba at his home - which would make this the first location that the Loch Ness Monster was also spotted as the first reference comes from Columba whilst at Emcath's residence.
