Overview
Welcome to Culross, one of Scotland’s most remarkably preserved historic villages. Today we’ll walk through cobbled streets, quiet closes, and centuries of history to discover the stories that shaped this place.
Once a thriving port on the shores of the Firth of Forth, Culross was known for its coal, salt, and trade, attracting merchants, nobles, and ordinary villagers whose lives were often anything but simple.
But alongside the history are darker and more mysterious tales — stories of superstition, fear, and the tragic witch trials that touched communities across Scotland.
As we walk, I’ll share the history, folklore, and the human stories behind this remarkable village, helping you imagine what life might have been like here hundreds of years ago.
