Kirkwall is the capital of the Orkney Islands in Scotland and a hub for its rich history, marked by key historical sites, including Saint Magnus Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace, and the Earls' Palace.
Saint Magnus Cathedral is a striking example of medieval architecture, built in the 12th century.
Located adjacent to Saint Magnus Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace is a significant historical building from the 12th century, originally the residence of the Bishop of Orkney. It was once a grand residence but now remains in ruins, with remnants of the stone structure, including walls, doorways, and arches, still visible.
The Earls' Palace, also located in Kirkwall, was built in the early 17th century by Earl Patrick Stewart. This impressive Renaissance-style building once served as the residence of the Earl of Orkney and was known for its grand design.
These landmarks collectively highlight Kirkwall's historical importance and the island's rich Norse and Scottish heritage.

5.00Tom was super. Very knowledgeable in the ins and outs of Kirkwall and Orkney generally. We had taken a cruise excursion tour earlier in the day but Tom was able to fill in the gaps from that earlier experience and also give us a great overview of the rich history surrounding Kirkwall. Between the sights we saw on this walking tour and the insight Tom provided, we came away feeling that we have a solid understanding of the area and its history.
