JK Rowling’s Handprints

JK Rowling's handprints are a unique tourist attraction located in the courtyard of Edinburgh City Chambers. These gilded imprints in concrete were created in 2008 when the author was awarded the Edinburgh Prize for her significant contribution to literature and impact on the city.

It's a must-see for Harry Potter fans and lovers of literature. The prints are part of Edinburgh's rich literary heritage, the first city in the world to be honored as a UNESCO City of Literature.

Nearby are other sites associated with J.K. Rowling, including the famous cafe The Elephant House, where the author wrote her best-selling novels.
