About Dean Castle Women’s History Tour

Listed Under Tour Events / History Events

We will be recognizing the remarkable contributions of women to Scottish history by providing a specialised tour that explores the legacies of the women who lived and worked within its walls. This will include talks on the likes of labour, rebels, royals, and entertainment - from the medieval to the modern. The tour will take approximately 90 minutes and will include exploring some behind the scenes areas of the Castle weather permitting, and focus on honouring our own unique Scottish women’s history.
