Description

Urquhart Castle () ist eine am Loch Ness gelegene Burgruine. Der nächstgelegene Ort ist das etwa 2,7 km entfernte Drumnadrochit.
Erste Besiedlungsspuren des Ortes gehen bereits in die Zeit vor dem Besuch des Heiligen Columban im 6. Jahrhundert zurück. Im Adomnán’s Life of Columba wird ein Vorläufer der Festung als Wohnsitz eines piktischen Adeligen erwähnt. Auf dem Gelände wurden zwar bei verschiedenen Ausgrabungen entsprechende Artefakte gefunden, ein früher vermutetes Piktisches Fort konnte jedoch bisher nicht nachgewiesen werden.
