Dundonald Castle (HS)

Dundonald

This prominent castle overlooking the village of Dundonald was built in the 1370s by Robert II to mark his succession to the throne. There are two great feasting halls, one above the other, with vaults beneath. Remains of an earlier but equally grand 13th century castle are clearly visible.  Recent archaeological excavations have shown that the castle hill was occupied by a large fort in the Dark Ages, and a prehistoric fort before that.

Opening Times

April to September: Monday - Sunday, 10.00am - last entry 4.30pm (closes at 5.00pm).
