Fans of “Outlander” can visit an ancient Scottish mansion where part of the series was filmed — and it won’t cost a penny.

Callendar House in Falkirk, Scotland, was used as a filming location in season two of the historical drama series.

But the building’s cultural and historical significance stretches beyond the TV show. Dating back to the 14th century, Callendar House was once home to the Livingston family, one of the most powerful noble families in Scotland.

Alexander, the 5th Lord Livingston, was appointed guardian of Mary, Queen of Scots, after her birth in 1542. The royal visited Callendar House on many occasions, and she was close friends with Alexander’s daughter, also named Mary.

These days, Callendar House is a free tourist attraction and private event venue. I took a tour and was amazed by the building’s beauty.
