Edinburgh
Edinburgh is a city steeped in history and its stunning rich architectural heritage is now recognised as a World Heritage Site.
With over 4,500 listed buildings, Edinburgh is world-renowned for its rich architectural heritage. The two main areas of particular interest in this historic city are the Old Town, which includes the medieval fortress of Edinburgh Castle, and the neoclassical New Town which dates back to the 18th century. The juxtaposition of medieval architecture with neoclassical terraces gives Edinburgh its own unique character. Together, the Old and New Towns were listed as a World Heritage Site in 1995, a status which will conserve Edinburgh’s magnificent architecture for future generations to enjoy. Following this, the Edinburgh World Heritage was created in 1999 and is funded by Historic Scotland and the City of Edinburgh Council. The charity aims, amongst other things, to monitor the site’s state of conservation and fund conservation projects. More
