Dunvegan Castle
Dunvegan Castle stands on a raised rock above an inlet on the eastern side of Loch Dunvegan (Scottish Gaelic: Loch Dhùn Bheagain). The castle is located about a mile north of the village of Dunvegan, Isle of Skye, Scotland (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Bheagain, An t-Eilean Sgitheanach, Alba). The original castle was built in the 13th century and added to over subsequent centuries with additional work being undertaken on some ten periods ranging from the 1200s to the 1850s. In the 19th century the whole castle was remodelled in a mock-medieval style. It is the seat of the MacLeod of MacLeod, chief of the Clan MacLeod.
Visitors can tour the castle and the grounds with boat trips on Loch Dunvegin.
