Eilean Donan Castle is a formidable fortress located on an island in the middle of Loch Duich. Vikings originally posed a threat leading to its construction in the 13th century. The castle then served as a defense against the Jacobite uprising. Although blown up during the Spanish invasion of 1719, it was reconstructed in 1912 and gained global recognition through featuring in Hollywood movies and TV shows. Today it is famous for its history, beauty, and prominent presence in popular culture. Show more
