The Vykyng visits ancient pictish caves in Fife,Scotland.The Wemyss Caves are a nationally important heritage site under threat from coastal erosion, structural instability and vandalism. The caves along with the remains of Macduff’s Castle are designated as a scheduled monument.

The site contains the largest collection of Pictish inscribed symbols in one place, together with the ruins of the medieval Mac Duff Castle and remains of later industrial activity. There is archaeological evidence for activity on and around the site for at least 4,000 years.

The Save the Wemyss Ancient Caves Society aims to secure the caves, carvings and other archaeological remains; manage and ensure safe access to them for the public; learn and understand more about the people who have lived and worked here through the ages; and share and celebrate the heritage of the Wemyss Caves.
