This year marks the start of celebrations to mark the 900th birthday of Edinburgh.
King St David – son of St Margaret – issued the charter to create the royal burgh in 1124. The foundation of the city was closely linked to David’s establishment of monasteries, one of which was in this city at Holyrood.
This walking tour will journey around some of the key sites in the centre of Scotland’s capital, that have been centres of the worship of God. Includes Holyrood Abbey, St Patrick's and St Cuthbert's
The tour is free, simply turn up on the day. Bring something for lunch, plenty of water and good walking shoes. Please check the weather forecast and bring a waterproof if required.
