Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Slezer's drawing of the Rosslyn Chapel (to use the modern spelling) was made from the south-east. Dogs are playing and visitors are wandering in what is now a graveyard.

The chapel is near the village of Roslin. It was founded by Sir William St Clair in 1446. In 1650, it was used as stables by Oliver Cromwell's army. Following the accession of William and Mary to the throne in 1689, some of the chapels were damaged by supporters of their Protestant reign.
