The Castle is one of the most iconic and photographed landmarks in Scotland. It sits dramatically on a small tidal island at the confluence of three sea lochs—Loch Duich, Loch Long, and Loch Alsh—near the village of Dornie in the western Scottish Highlands, along the main route toward the Isle of Skye.
The medieval castle was substantial, with a curtain wall, towers, and a keep. It played roles in clan feuds and Scottish history but was largely destroyed in 1719 during the Jacobite Rising.

The present structure is 20th-century reconstruction, which took 20 years and was completed in 1935,,,,,,,,, HWW! ,,,,,,, large view recommended
