Kinnaird Head Lighthouse

On the promontory of Kinnaird Head, on the northeast coast of Scotland, sits a peculiarly designed lighthouse. Originally constructed in 1571 by Sir Alexander Fraser, the castle towered over his new town of Fraserburgh with Scotland's forgotten university built in its shadow. It is an exception in history--the only lighthouse in the world to be built into a castle.

The castle was saved from ruin in 1787 when the newly formed Northern Lighthouse Board transformed it into their first Scottish lighthouse. For 200 years this small tower played host to lairds, lords and Jacobites before abandonment in 1750. Every Stevenson engineer visited and left their mark on the site, while a never-ending watch of keepers kept the light flashing for 200 years.
