    Hey folks, today we're breaking down our TOP 5 favourite castles that either are, or were, under the control of Clan Campbell...one of the most powerful families in the Highlands of Scotland! This is just a wee taster and a quick tour, but we'll be travelling to all locations...when we can (given present circumstances) to share a more in-depth history of these locations, so stay tuned for that later in the year! We're happy to produce more of these Top 5 Clan Castle vids, so let us know in the comments below, which Clan you'd like see featured next! :)

    I am a Campbell. I only wish I could tour all the castles of my forefathers in person! I recently did DNA ancestry and found my actual Clan's Coat of Arms & Family Crest, and was invited to join the Clan geneology. I'm a direct descendant of Sir John.. My fathers name is John, as my Grandfather and his father too... now I know why :0)

    My Great Aunt by marriage belongs to Clan Campbell. She plays the bagpipes. She and 2 of her children went to Scotland a couple years ago and visited some of their ancestral lands. My genealogy says I am over 60% Scottish. I don't know anything about my Scottish ancestors. This tour was very interesting. Thank you.

    Fascinating history! One of the people I watch on YT toured a lot of Scotland’s castles and went into the history of some of them. It seems the Campbell’s and the MacDonalds were notorious enemy’s and would attack each other’s castles. The MacDonalds at one time burned a church that had the Campbell family inside, brutal! I don’t remember the name of the castle.

    • @veronicaroach3667
      @veronicaroach3667 3 роки тому

      If they are already ruins for several hundred years, it may be that they don't even know what they looked like when they were lived in.....some rehabs are done on old ruins. but generally they can only rebuild where the joist holes are & imagine how it looked way-back-when ! Remember it's all about the money too - who is going to pay for all that restoration ? Most of the castles that have come down with their walls & roofs intact are finished as of the most recent era that they were lived in, so not always very ancient inside - ltho still really interesting to see a video of those - I yearn to own my own castle !

    • @bethenecampbell6463
      @bethenecampbell6463 3 роки тому +1

      Most of the ruins are stabilized and have some interpretive signage. They're open, for free, for people to explore and imagine who lived there. It's kind of cool to be able to see inside the walls and imagine the building process. You can see where floor joists and fireplaces were, examine stone corbels and still climb the stairs in some turrets to look out over the land.
