Set in the picturesque village of Culross, the Palace, built between 1597 and 1611, consists of yellow-washed ranges of gabled buildings, with decorative paint work and original interiors. There is an unusual steeply terraced garden. The Palace was built for Sir George Bruce of Carnock, who made a fortune in coal mining, but about 1700 passed to the Erskines. The building has been carefully restored by the National Trust for Scotland. Disabled access to exhibition. Town House and Study.
