Embark on a journey with us as we delve into the tales of courageous Highlanders, whose unwavering spirit led them to fight and sacrifice for their Bonnie Prince, Charles Edward Stuart, during the pivotal Battle of Culloden in 1746. We unravel the intricate events that set the stage for the battle, illuminating the profound implications it held for the Scottish people. Additionally, our exploration extends to the captivating film locations featured in the widely acclaimed "Outlander" TV series on Starz and the more recent production "One Day."
