When was Balmoral Castle built?

The current Balmoral Castle was completed in 1856, commissioned by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. The original estate had a smaller castle built in the early 17th century. The design of the new castle was created by architect William Smith, with Prince Albert closely involved in its planning. Since its construction, Balmoral has been expanded and maintained by the royal family. The estate remains a symbol of Scottish heritage and royal tradition.
