A rapid jaunt through five centuries of history on Kings College campus!
A new mini-tour set in Old Aberdeen, specifically on the university campus. A must for all potential students & parents!
Beginning at Elphinstone Hall, this tour covers the medieval and modern “quads” of Kings College, founded in 1495, by Bishop William Elphinstone. Elphinstone, New Kings and the former Divinity Manse formed a 20th century quad, while Kings itself and the Snow Kirk were the remnants of the original university college. There’s so much to pack in on this short hop around the campus, it’s really an appetiser for the longer Old Aberdeen walk.
