History+
The origins of Edzell Castle date back to around 1520, when David Lindsay, the 9th Earl of Crawford, initiated its construction. His son, Sir David Lindsay – Lord Edzell, contributed to the expansion of the complex and created the garden, still visible today, in 1604. In 1715, ownership changed hands again within the Lindsay family, before the complex became state property in 1930.
