Mary, Queen of Scots lived a famously turbulent life - and several years of her life were spent at the Palace of Holyroodhouse. The royal residence was therefore witness to many dramatic events during Mary’s reign, from marriages to murder, as well as the daily life and atmosphere at the Marian court. Join Senior Curator at the Palace of Holyroodhouse Deborah Clarke, and Dr Anna Groundwater Principal Curator, Renaissance and Early Modern History at National Museums Scotland, for an evening in-conversation event all about the fascinating life of Mary, Queen of Scots, exploring life at the court of this most famous Scottish monarch.

Please note this Zoom Webinar is now fully booked, however you can watch the event live on the Royal Collection Trust YouTube channel.
