Join Date: Apr 2006 Posts: 102 Rep:  Rep Power: 10 | Historian Attacks Rosslyn Chapel for 'Cashing in on Da Vinci Code'  A LEADING Scots historian yesterday criticised the keepers of Rosslyn Chapel for perpetuating "ludicrous" Da Vinci Code conspiracy theories.
Dr Louise Yeoman said guides and information boards at the chapel should portray the real history of the 15th-century building, rather than attempt to cash in on the popularity of fictional works, such as the bestselling novel by Dan Brown.
The author and academic said the medieval chapel in Midlothian was built by William Sinclair so that Mass could be said for the souls of his family.
She condemned those who believed it was at the centre of a conspiracy and said the chapel, looked after by the Rosslyn Chapel Trust, perpetuated a false image to cash in on the popularity of The Da Vinci Code.
