Blackness Castle | Fort William
​
The 15th century fortress of Blackness Castle which doubles as the setting for the Fort William headquarters of Black Jack Randall and the heart-wrenching scene of Jamie’s incarceration.
​
One of Scotland’s most impressive strongholds, Blackness Castle was built in the 15th century by one of Scotland’s most powerful families, the Crichtons.

Hopetoun House | Lallybroch
​
One of the finest examples of Scotland’s grand architecture, the splendid Hopetoun House, on the outskirts of Edinburgh, doubled as the stately home of the Duke of Sandringham in season one.
​
Provided the backdrop for Parisian streets, the spare room in Jamie and Claire’s Paris apartment, and the Hawkins Estate in season two and Ellesmere and the stables at Helwater in season three.
​
Interesting fact: in real life the house is vast compared to how it appears in the TV show, as some of its wings were digitally erased.
​
Access can sometimes be gained to Lallybroch Midhope Castle too for photos, this is subject to the day and not guaranteed.

The town centre dates back to the 16th Century and it is at Culross Palace that you will find Claire’s herb garden and many of the buildings that star in the show.
