Stirling Castle is one of Scotland’s most impressive castles due to its imposing position and amazing architecture. From Stirling Castle’s ramparts, visitors can take in views of the Forth Valley and Ben Lomond , as well as two of Scotland’s most important battle sites – Stirling Bridge (1297) and Bannockburn (1314). The castle is at the head of Stirling’s historic old town.Like Edinburgh Castle , Stirling sits on a volcanic rock dominating the city skyline . Stirling is the Braveheart castle in Scotland , as it was a hugely important strategic asset. In 1296 King Edward I took the castles at Dunnottar, Dunbar, Edinburgh and Stirling. Within a year, William Wallace took it back, burning the castle with the English garrison inside. Stirling Castle is not only one of Scotland’s grandest and most imposing castles, it was also a real favourite with Scotland’s Stewart kings and queens. James IV created the Great Hall, the largest medieval banqueting hall ever built in Scotland, and James V’s Royal Palace, with its lavishly decorated Renaissance façades, was a masterpiece of the period. The Royal Palace , designed by King James V , is one of only 2 Renaissance palaces in Scotland . Major conservation work has been carried out at Stirling Castle over many years to preserve the attraction as a major national and international monument. The refurbishment of the Great Hall was completed thirteen years ago . A particular feature of the Great Hall is stained glass windows featuring clan crests . A number of banquets and concerts are held in the Hall throughout the year . Is there a Braveheart castle ? Stirling Castle was important strategically and Wallace fought hard to gain control of it due to its strategic significance . The castle changed hands 8 times during the Wars of Independence .
