The Kelpies
In 2014, the Scottish government decided to honor their mythological heritage with the creation of two brand new sculptures called The Kelpies. Kelpies are mythological creatures that look like horses, except they possess great intelligence and the strength of 10 animals. The sculptures are almost 100 feet high, and are made of stainless steel. They represent the most significant addition to the landscape of Central Scotland in years. Located in Falkirk, over one million people visited the sculptures in the first year after they were installed. Visit these sculptures to see a modern interpretation of an ancient myth come to life.
