-----

This eye-catching, Gothic structure stands like a sentinel at the top of Edinburgh's Royal Mile, near the iconic Edinburgh Castle. Built in the 19th century as a church, it's no longer a place of worship but still serves a vital role in the community as The Hub, Edinburgh’s Festival Centre. With its spire soaring to the sky, it's hard to miss and provides a unique blend of old and new. Inside, you'll find a café and information center, making it a convenient pitstop for festival-goers and curious travelers alike. Whether you're in town for the renowned Edinburgh Festival or just meandering down the historic Royal Mile, the Tollbooth Kirk—now The Hub—offers a charming blend of Scottish culture, history, and modern-day festivities.Read more
