EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Royal Retreat: Crathie Church in Balmoral, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, 1960s. Crathie Church, nestled in the picturesque village of Crathie in the Scottish Highlands, has been a place of worship and community gathering for centuries. However, it is perhaps most famously known for being the parish church of the British Royal Family when they are in residence at Balmoral Castle. In this 1960s photograph, we see the quaint stone church standing proudly against the backdrop of the Scottish landscape. The red-roofed building, with its tall, square tower and whitewashed walls, exudes a sense of tranquility and history. The surrounding trees and rolling hills add to the idyllic setting, making it a truly breathtaking sight. The Royal Family's connection to Crathie Church dates back to Queen Victoria, who purchased Balmoral Castle in 1852. Since then, it has become a cherished tradition for the monarch and their family to attend services at the church during their summer stays in the Scottish Highlands. The photograph captures a moment in time when the Royal Family, much like the local community, came together to worship and connect with one another in this beautiful and historic place of faith. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring bond between the monarchy and the people of Scotland, as well as the importance of community and tradition in our lives. Crathie Church continues to be an essential part of the Balmoral estate and a beloved destination for visitors from around the world. Its rich history, stunning beauty, and deep-rooted connection to the British monarchy make it a truly unique and captivating place.
