Scone Palace, Category A listed palace in Perth and Kinross, Scotland.
The red sandstone building features a castellated roof and stands near the village of Scone as the ancestral residence of the Earls of Mansfield.
Scottish monarchs, including Kenneth MacAlpin, Robert the Bruce, and Charles II, received their crowns at this location between the 9th and 17th centuries.
The palace maintains collections of French furniture, Dresden porcelain, and Sevres ceramics that represent Scottish noble heritage through generations.
Visitors can explore the State Rooms, extensive grounds with gardens, and participate in seasonal events such as Christmas candlelight tours.
The palace grounds contain a replica of the Stone of Scone marking the exact location where Scottish kings received their coronation ceremonies.
