How Many Castles Are in Scotland? Over 2,000

There are over two thousand castles in Scotland, though many are known only from historical records. It is estimated there were as many as three thousand castles once in Scotland — almost one for every hundred square miles. The truth is, there are about 65 existing castles in Scotland, while there are more than 30,000 castles in Ireland, including ruins which are still standing. Scotland has a long and complex history, and castles played a significant role in the country’s defense and political structure. Many of these castles were built during the medieval period, but some are much older, and some were built more recently.

Some of these castles are open to the public and can be visited, while others are privately owned or have been abandoned.
