Marischal College
Marischal College is said to be the second biggest granite building in the world (the largest being the Escorial in Spain). Founded in 1593, Marischal College became the second university in Aberdeen. Construction of the building began in 1830s and was completed in 1906. Marischal College architecture features a combination of styles, including A Marshall Mackenzie's perpendicular gothic and Archibald Simpson's austere architecture. Both styles have been built with different stone, with Simpson's using Rubislaw stone and Mackenzie's using Kemnay granite. (Aberdeen, Scotland)
