Built on a small island in Loch Duich in the scenic Scottish highlands, Eilean Donan Castle served first as a defense against Viking raiders in the early 13th century. It lay in ruins for nearly 200 years after English soldiers fighting the Jacobite uprising nearly leveled it in 1719, but it was fully restored in 1932.
