Join us as we delve into the stories of the incredible women behind the castle's 700-year history. Discover our socialites who attended Queen Victoria's stately balls, a philanthropist who pushed boundaries and the pioneering lady who left us Lauriston. Their lives, loves and losses are imprinted on the house, waiting to be told.
Edinburgh Living History are our multi award- winning team, who interpret the history of the castle in a variety of entertaining ways in Edwardian costume - bringing alive the history of the house. Each performance is carefully devised by Edinburgh Living History to be as historically accurate as possible and include a touch of drama and a soupçon of humour.
Why not make a day of it at Lauriston and have some lunch at Mimi’s café on site.
