Description: Known from the Movie "Highlander".
Added information from blob:
Eilean Donan (island of Donan) Castle is situated on a rocky islet in Loch Duich near Dornie about 8 miles from Kyle of Lochalsh.
The island has been a fortified site for thousands of years. Evidence of a Pictish fort was found in vitrified rock uncovered during excavations there.
The Castle itself was built in around 1260, commissioned by King Alexander II (1214-1250), to protect his subjects from the Norwegians. The present building largely dates from the early 20th century.
It is considered as one of Scotland's most romantic castles, and made world famous by such films as 'Highlander' and `James Bond`.
