Full of symbolism, Rosslyn Chapel may be small, but will easily make you stay longer than you expected.
Rosslyn Chapel is surrounded by mystery and inevitably, all kinds of theories surround it - even though the chapel is almost 600 years old, as it was founded in the mid-15th century. Its popularity now stems from the role it plays in the 2003 Da Vinci code novel, and in fact the chapel was full when I entered. Theories include those linking the founder, William St. Clair, to the Knights Templar, or the Holy Grail (and other precious items) being entombed in a crypt under the chapel - some even claim the body of Jesus Christ can be found here! Some of these theories build on the richly sculpted interior of Rosslyn Chapel, not all of which have been explained so far. One of the newest theories claims that Rosslyn Chapel is a mere representation of the different stages of life. After entering Rosslyn Chapel, I was immediately struck by the beauty which seemed to come from all sides. The ceiling is divided in five parts, and is decorated with stars and moons, and tablet flowers, ball flowers and roses. No window is the same, all have colourful and delicately decorated stained glass. The architraves are decorated, in small alcoves you can find subtle sculptures.
