Can you defeat our Edinburgh Castle quiz to be crowned the history king or queen?

It's Edinburgh's most iconic landmark, but how much do you really know about the fortress which dominates the city's skyline?

To determine the next king or queen of the capital's history, we've decided to set the city a challenge.

If you are a true master of Edinburgh Castle's storied past, you will be able to ace our quiz below with ten out of ten. Anything above five is a worthy effort - perhaps a dukedom or minor lairdhship rather than the crown.

Let us know how you get on, and feel free to join our history group Edinburgh Back in Time for more on the capital's past.

Still up for a challenge? You can test your knowledge of Edinburgh in our street view quiz, try our citizenship test, give our pubs and bars quiz a go, try and work out where these historical photos were taken, and test your Harry Potter knowledge.
