A castle was built here by Macbeth, which was destroyed by Malcolm Canmore in 1057. Today the site consists of a fortress built in 1835 to house the Sheriff’s Court and Police Department, a function it still performs today. Inverness Castle is located in the city centre and sits on a low cliff on the east bank overlooking the river. The Drum Tower of Inverness Castle houses an exhibition portraying the castle story and is open daily during the summer season.
