On 16 April 1746, the final Jacobite Rising came to a brutal head. Jacobite supporters, seeking to restore the Stuart monarchy to the British thrones, gathered to fight the Duke of Cumberland's government troops. It was the last pitched battle on British soil and, in less than an hour, around 1,500 men were slain; more than 1,000 of them Jacobites. This is the site of the bloody last battle of Jacobite Rising. A visitor center and interactive exhibition are inside and the battlefield is outside.
