Make Your Own History


Hamish Clark with a Historic Scotland membership card.Come and join us for great family weekends and days out all year round, with fantastic historic attractions all over Scotland. Our 78 ticketed sites include castles, abbeys, prehistoric settlements and reminders of the Industrial Revolution – and all make great-value visits.

And for those of you who aren’t already members of Historic Scotland, there’s never been a better time to join. Family membership costs less than £7 a month (for two adults it’s under £6 and for concessions it’s less than £4.70) and means you can get into all our attractions without paying a penny. Even better is that from now until 11 July anyone who takes out a year’s membership by direct debit gets three months extra free.

You can start making savings as soon as you have joined – for example two adults and two children visiting Stirling Castle, then popping over to Doune Castle and Linlithgow Palace would save nearly £59 straight away. Other benefits of membership include:


  • Half price entry to over 500 heritage attractions in England, Wales and the Isle of Man in your first year of membership and free entry for renewal or life members.
  • Free entry to over 400 Historic Scotland daytime events from living history and music to battle re-enactments and spectacular jousting tournaments.
  • 20% retail discount in all Historic Scotland shops - includes books, clothing and gifts.
  • Free quarterly magazine keeping you informed with features on Scottish history and heritage, conservation projects and places to visit.
  • The opportunity to take part in members’ activities from guided tours and lectures to lunches and concerts.
  • Membership pack containing your membership cards and handbook, events guide and full information on all your membership benefits.
  • Exclusive online area allowing you to manage and update your membership details.
