Chirnside Parish Church is located in the Scottish Borders, between Duns and Eyemouth. The church dates back to the 12th century, originally known as Ecclesia de Chirnyside, and was granted to the monks of Durham. Over time, it underwent multiple renovations, including significant repairs after the Reformation in 1573 and further changes in 1757. In 1904, Baron Tweedmouth reshaped the interior and added a memorial gateway. It became part of the Church of Scotland in 1929 and is now a category B listed building. Racing driver Jim Clark is buried here.
Duino Castle was built by the Wallsee family in 1389 on the cliffs overlooking the Gulf of Trieste. It replaced an older castle from the 11th century. Over time, the Wallsee family disappeared and the castle, after having been used as a prison, became the residence of the Luogar and Hofer.
At the end of the 19th century it became the property of Prince Alexander von Thurn und Taxis from the Czech branch of the House of Thurn and Taxis. It remains with the family to this day with his great-grandson Prince Carlo Alessandro della Torre e Tasso, Duke of Castel Duino the current owner. The castle has been opened to the public as a museum and park.
