Historic Sites of Perth & Kinross

Perth and Kinross preserves centuries of Scottish history, featuring the coronation site of kings at Scone Palace and the island prison of Mary, Queen of Scots at Loch Leven Castle. The area is home to the Fortingall Yew, one of Europe’s oldest living organisms, and rare architectural survivors like the 11th-century Abernethy Round Tower. From the baronial grandeur of Blair Castle to the medieval ruins of Balvaird and Burleigh, these sites document the evolution of Scottish defensive and residential architecture.
