【BBC女王的宫殿】圣十字架宫2



       
       
        圣十字架宫是王室血腥历史的见证。历史上有名的苏格兰玛丽女王——号称当时最美丽的女人就曾住在城堡塔楼中。玛丽15岁嫁给法国王室,19岁丈夫去世又回到苏格兰,在民众拥戴中登上王位。玛丽女王在叛变中失掉王位并逃往英格兰,囚禁19年后被处死。玛丽女王的秘书在塔楼中被刺56刀而死,现在这里还立着一块指示牌。这就不难理解为什么圣十字架宫会经常传出闹鬼的传闻了。

Scotland's royal palace sits alongside the ancient abbey that gave it its name, Holyroodhouse, the House of the Holy Cross. The abbey guest house, for centuries a royal retreat, would evolve into a great palace, a building that would unite the fortunes of three kingdoms - France, England and Scotland. And it all began with Mary Stuart, better known as Mary Queen of Scots. She was a vibrant, clever woman, but a Catholic queen in a land overwhelmed by Protestant revolution. It would shape the course of her tragic life.荷里路德宫不单是一座行宫,它记载了苏格兰的历史。其实是一本用石头砌成的传记,这座行宫与古老的修道院并排而立,因此定名为荷里路德,意思是“圣十字架”。修道院的客房一向是王室避静之所,后来加建成为宏伟的宫殿,把三个帝国的兴衰成败联系起来:法国、英格兰和苏格兰。一切从玛丽斯图亚特开始,就是世人熟悉的苏格兰女皇玛丽。她是个活泼、听颖的女子,可惜这位信奉天主教的女皇,偏偏生在新教徒崛起的土地上,由此编写了她悲剧的一生。
