Glamis Castle, located in the village of Glamis in Angus, Scotland, is a historic and architecturally significant structure with a rich history dating back to the 14th century. The castle has been the ancestral seat of the Lyon family, now known as the Bowes-Lyon family, and is famously associated with the late Queen Mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who was born there. Renowned for its stunning turrets, towers, and expansive gardens, Glamis Castle also features prominently in Shakespeare's play "Macbeth," where it is referenced as the home of the title character.
