Welcome to the Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland

Scotland has a rich heritage of castles, mansions and garden landscapes, ecclesiastical and industrial sites, cities, towns and villages. This wealth of buildings provides many opportunities for study, but despite being famous throughout the world, our heritage is in constant need of protection.

The Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland is committed to encouraging public understanding and appreciation of our built environment, and supports the thoughtful and meaningful preservation and restoration of historic buildings.

This website gives information on the principal activities of the Society and helps you discover more about Scotland’s historic buildings.  You can also find details of upcoming events, the benefits of becoming a member, and the publications we produce.

As well as joining the Society, you can also become involved by volunteering, as we are always looking for volunteers to help with various activities throughout the year. If you would like to find out more about the opportunities that are available, please click here.
