History

Perthshire has seen some of Scotland's most historic events. Kings and Queens, armies and generals, poets and artist- even heroes- all have passed this way leaving behind a rich legacy of castles, churches, battlefields and historic sites.

The magnificent Scone Palace where Kings of Scots including Robert the Bruce, was crowned. The replica of the stone of Scone otherwise known as the stone of Destiny sits in the palace grounds. The original stone which was used for centuries in the coronation of the monarchs of Scotland, then later monarchs of England, Great Britain and the United Kingdom was allowed to be returned to Scotland by the Queen in 1996 after nearly 700 years, it can be viewed at Edinburgh Castle.

Home of the Clan Chief at Castle Menzies, by Aberfeldy, where Bonnie Prince Charles stayed on his way to the Battle of Culloden.

St.Johns Church, Perth where John Knox fuelled the fire of the reformation.
