About

Inverness Castle (Scottish Gaelic: Caisteal Inbhir Nis) is a castle overlooking the River Ness in Inverness, Highland, Scotland. A succession of castles has occupied the site since 1057, although the present red sandstone structure was completed in 1836 to designs by William Burn and later extended by Thomas Brown II. Originally serving as the sheriff court and administrative centre for Inverness-shire, the castle is a Category A listed building.
