    B. Used by the Army

    C. Home to royalty

    D. Ancient traditions live on

    E. A national symbol











    1. ____ Edinburgh Castle, situated high above the city on Castle Rock, was once the home of the kings and queens of Scotland. The 700-year-old Crown of Scotland is still on display there, and the Royal apartments include a tiny room where the future king of England, James I, was born in 1566.
    2. _____ The Castle was the site of many battles with the English. Over the centuries it survived many attempts to destroy it, that is why many Scots see it as a symbol of their own survival.
    3. _____ Visitors to the Castle will see a military guard at the gate, because the castle is still the headquarters of the army’s Scottish Division. The famous Military Tattoo is also held here every August. This is a spectacular three-week festival of bagpipe and band music, marching and displays by Scottish regiments.
    4. _____ Edinburgh Castle houses exhibitions of Scottish history and a collection of armour and weapons. As well as what there is to see inside, the castle’s hilltop position offers the best views of the city.
