Fort George is a large 18th-century fortress near Ardersier, to the west of Nairn. It was built to pacify the Scottish Highlands in the aftermath of the Jacobite Rising of 1745 (Battle of Culloden), replacing a Fort George in Inverness constructed after the 1715 Jacobite rising to control the area. The current fortress has never been attacked and has remained in continuous use as a garrison. The fortification is based on a star design; it remains virtually unaltered and nowadays is open to visitors with exhibits and facsimiles showing the fort's use at different periods, while still serving as army barracks.
