Elgin Cathedral is now open and we are delighted to welcome you back. Booking in advance is essential. Find out more and book at restarthistory.scot. Elgin Cathedral, also known as the ‘Lantern of the North’ is a majestic, historic ruin situated in Elgin. Elgin Cathedral is one of Scotland’s most beautiful medieval buildings, dating back to the 13th century. Elgin Cathedral has a rich history - it was badly fire damaged in 1390 following an attack by Robert III's brother Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, who was also known as the ‘Wolf of Badenoch’. The two towers of the West Front and the Chapter House are intact and open to the public and the climb is rewarded with magnificent views of the town of Elgin. The top of the tower has an open viewing platform with information boards highlighting the visible landmarks.

A very interesting place lots of history and lots of information about the place there are lots of artefacts of the cathedral around there are approx 3 flights of challenging steps going up into the towers well worth it for the views but not suitable for people with mobility issues instead there is a room at the bottom that has a computer with all the information as is in the towers this is brilliant I want able to do the stairs so used that it was brill. The grounds are well kept and lots of information boards around. The shop is well stocked and the gentleman in was so friendly and helpful. Toilets very clean This is definitely a place to visit
