The Scottish magnate for Tourism Eileen Donan Castle located on Loch Duich on the road to the Isles of Skye.


Eilean Donan Castle, near Dornie, is one of the most easily recognised castles in Scotland as well as being the most photographed and probably appears on more calendars than any other. It is, without any exaggeration, a Scottish icon. It therefore comes as a surprise to discover that although the island has been fortified since at least the Iron Age, the castle you see today was only rebuilt from earlier ruins in the years between 1913 and 1932.
