Description

Home is the Hero. Scotland’s finest. He loved his land. He died for it. Rightful and deserving Hero of the Scots. The Hall of Arms offers up tales of immense courage and strength, especially against the army of King Edward I. How did it all happen? Why such a hero? And after that victory? What came next? Here is the armour. Here are the weapons. Here evidence of the tactics and the strategies. Tales of the battles. The twirling stairs lead the visitor to the Royal Chamber. And the monument. And the Crown. Here one can appreciate how the great nation of the Scots came into being and grew and achieved its destiny. Some of the most stunningly beautiful landscapes on earth, viewed from on high. And from here can be seen the fields of war and the plains. This was once the beating heart of Scotland.
