Spirit of the Highlands and Islands - Brochs of Caithness

Описание: Caithness is home to around 500 brochs, many barely visible, but others are amazingly well preserved 3,000 years later. With their curved and incredibly thick twin walls, brochs may have offered communities a place of refuge when attacked, but their exact purpose is unknown.

Today, the Caithness Broch Centre explores everything broch, while the Caithness Broch Project is building a modern-day broch by hand to bring prehistory back to life.
