Our Favourites

Step into 15th-century Scotland at John Knox House, Edinburgh’s only surviving medieval building on the Royal Mile. Dating back to 1470, this historic site offers a vivid journey through three floors of drama and heritage. Discover stories of the Scottish Reformation, civil unrest, and Mary, Queen of Scots. Learn about James Mosman, a former resident and royal goldsmith executed for treason. Although John Knox lived here briefly, his legacy helped save the house from demolition in the 1850s. Unearthed time capsules from that rescue are now on display. With rich storytelling, preserved craftsmanship, and fun surprises like a dragon’s nest in the bookshop, John Knox House brings Scottish history to life for all ages
