In a nation of a thousand castles, one stands out above all others. High on a rock above Scotland's ancient capital, stands Edinburgh Castle. Royal palace and impregnable fortress, prehistoric dwelling place and modern tourist attraction: it is all these things, yet something more. Down the centuries, the Castle has become the defining symbol of Scottish nationhood. It is the embodiment, in rock and stone, of this land's rich and tumultuous history.

This scenic DVD explores the history behind this iconic collection of buildings, and brings the story up to date with the return of the Stone of Destiny. Spectacular footage of the Festival Fireworks and the Tattoo place the Castle in context with the City of Edinburgh as it is today. Narrated by Jim McColl, the programme also contains French, German and Spanish language options.
