Jacobite Clans Ep.1: Who Were the Jacobites?

To coincide with the 330th anniversary of the Battle of Killiecrankie in summer 2019, Perth Museum and Art Gallery have presented a major exhibition exploring the Jacobites in Perthshire.

Focusing on the great clans and families of Perthshire, this exhibition reveals the hidden stories of warring kinsmen and forfeited homes from the old chief carried home on the spoils of combat to the stricken mother, desperate for news of her son, missing after battle.

In their first podcast, Culture Perth and Kinross Marketing Officer David McLeod, will be chatting with Dr Nicky Small, Local History Officer at Culture Perth and Kinross, all about this fantastic exhibition 'Jacobite Clans' at Perth Museum and Art Gallery on until the 26th October.

Hear about the great clans and families of Perthshire, and discover the hidden stories of warring kinsmen and forfeited homes. Episode 1 offers an overview of
the exhibition and a taste of what to expect in future episodes.

The Jacobite Clan's podcast has been inspired by the Culture Perth and Kinross Jacobite Clan's Exhibition hosted over 2019 at Perth Museum and Art Gallery.
