Guide - Castles

Blackness castle has been a royal castle, prison, armaments depot and film location for Hamlet and the BBC production of Ivanhoe.

There are display boards around the lawn although uneven ground and cobbles make it difficult for visitors using wheelchairs. Visitors with disabilities can be set down closer.There are gravel paths around the lawn and there is some fine shrubbery in the grounds.

The castle has spectacular views across to the Fife coast and Forth bridges.
