Caisteal Dubh (Black Castle)

Caisteal Dubh, meaning "Black Castle" in Scottish Gaelic, is a historic fortress located on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Built in the 16th century, it served as a stronghold for the Clan MacLeod. Its dark stone walls and strategic seaside position made it a formidable defensive structure. Today, the ruins are a popular attraction, offering visitors a glimpse into Scotland's medieval history and clan heritage. The name reflects its weathered, dark appearance and historical significance as a symbol of strength and tradition in the region.
