Drumlanrig Castle

The “Pink Palace” of Drumlanrig was built by William Douglas the first Duke of Queensbury between 1679 and 1689. Sitting on the site of an old Douglas stronghold overlooking the River Nith in Dumfrieshire, Scotland, it’s a prime example of 17th century Scottish Renaissance architecture.
