Edinburgh Castle and Stirling Castle play central roles in major events in Scottish history, both for wars and coronations. Edinburgh Castle has the Scottish National War Memorial and the Scottish Crown Jewels. Guarding the entrance to the Castle are statues of Robert Bruce and William Wallace. Important things to visit in the castle are St Margaret's Chapel, Mon's Meg, and the birthplace of King James VI. The Walter Scott Monument stands on Princes Street in Edinburgh. Calton Hill also has a half-completed Doric-style temple meant to commemorate the Napoleonic Wars, in addition to a tower dedicated to Admiral Lord Nelson. St Giles Church is home to the Royal Order of the Thistle. There is a statue of Greyfiars' Bobby near Greyfriars' Kirkyard. Loch Ness is a monument to the Scots' penchant for storytelling.
