Drumlanrig Castle, located in Thornhill, Dumfries and Galloway, United Kingdom, is an impressive example of late 17th-century Renaissance architecture. Often referred to as the "Pink Palace" due to its distinctive pink sandstone, the castle was completed in 1691 and serves as the ancestral seat of the Dukes of Buccleuch and Queensberry. The estate encompasses beautifully landscaped gardens, extensive woodlands, and offers a variety of outdoor activities. Inside, visitors can explore opulent state rooms adorned with fine art, antique furniture, and rich historical artifacts.
