Inveraray Castle (Gaelic ''Caisteal Inbhir Aora,'' pronounced (:ˈkʰaʃtʲal iɲɪɾʲˈɯːɾə)) is a country house near Inveraray in the county of Argyll, in western Scotland, on the shore of Loch Fyne, Scotland’s longest sea loch.〔 It has been the seat of the Duke of Argyll, chief of Clan Campbell, since the 17th century. ==History and architecture== Work on the castle began in the 1750s, in Gothic revival style. Later additions included a third floor with dormer windows and steep conical roofs. The village of Inveraray was moved in the 1770s to give the castle a more secluded setting. 〔 Designers who worked on the house include William Adam and Roger Morris; the interior includes a number of neoclassical rooms created for the 5th Duke by Robert Mylne. These are among the rooms open to the public. James Lees-Milne was not impressed by the house when he visited it in 1943, noting the "ugly" gray stone and calling it "grim and forbidding".〔 In 1975, a devastating fire struck Inveraray and for some time the 12th Duke and his family lived in the castle's basement, while restorations requiring a worldwide fund raising drive were carried out.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Inveraray Castle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
