The Massacre of Glencoe Monument is a memorial to the Massacre of Glencoe , which took place here in the Highlands of Scotland on the 13th of February 1692, following the Jacobite uprising of 1689–92.

The REAL Reason for the Massacre of Glencoe It's one of Scottish history’s most shocking episodes. On the 13th of February 1692, around 38 of the MacDonald’s of Glencoe were killed in an early morning attack by soldiers who had been living with them for 12 days. The massacre is portrayed as the result of a long standing feud between the Campbells and the MacDonalds, but is that really true? What were the real reasons behind one of Scottish history’s most shocking acts? #glencoe #scotland #scotla

Today is the anniversary of the massacre of Glencoe, 13th February 1692. Glencoe is known for its haunting past as well as its wild beauty. The infamous massacre that took place here in 1692 is a tragic and poignant chapter in Scottish history, and a key moment in the story of the Jacobites. The song I am singing is “The Massacre of Glencoe” by the Corries. A full length “virtual tour” talking about the massacre in more detail will be available to watch for subscribers later this week.
