WHERE DAVID RIZZIO WAS SLAIN; THE PALACE OF HOLYROODHOUSE  

THE Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh is Scotland’s chief Royal  

palace, and is forever associated with the unhappy Mary Queen of Scots.  

It was her principal residence for six tragic years (1561-1567), and it was  

here that the most famous scene in Scottish history was enacted.  

On the 9th March, 1566, Queen Mary, the Countess of Argyll and David  

Rizzio, the Queen's secretary, were dining together when they were surprised  

by Ruthven, Darnley, Morton and other conspirators, who entered by the  

private staircase. They seized Rizzio, who had thrown himself behind the  

Queen, clinging to her robes for protection. He was torn from his hold and  

dragged through two outer rooms to the head of the main staircase, where  

he died from fifty-six dagger wounds. Jealousy of Rizzio’s political influence  

with the Queen is reputed to be the chief motive for this crime. Today  

brass plate marks the spot where Rizzio died; it covers the bloodstains  

which it is said existed there for some years. The brass plate bears the  

inscription—“ The body of David Rizzio was left here after his murder in  

Queen Mary> Supper Room, 9t,h March, 1566.” Rizzio was buried in the  

Chapel of Holyrood Abbey, adjoining the Palace, and three months later  

Queen Mary married Bothwell.  

The building of Holyrood Palace was begun about 1500, during the reign  

of James IV, and completed in James V’s reign (1513-1542). In 1544 most  

of the Palace was burned down by the Earl of Hertford. It was quickly  

restored, and in 1650 it was occupied by Cromwell, whose troops damaged  

much of the interior. The Duke of Lauderdale enlarged the Palace to its  

present extent in 1671 during the reign of Charles 11.  

It was here in 1745 that Bonnie Prince Charlie held his gay court beneath  

the guns of the hostile castle before setting off on his ill-fated march to London,
