OLD INVERLOCHY CASTLE
Go there and contact
There are two Inverlochy Castles: the recent one, which has become a luxury hotel, and the old one, in ruins, which can be discovered freely, a little away from the city. Old Inverlochy Castle is located in a strategic defensive position in relation to the river Lochy. It dates back to the 13th century and played a key role in 1645 when the Earl of Montrose, Royalist, defeated the forces of the chief of the Campbell clan, the Duke of Argyll: this was the second battle of Inverlochy. In 1654 it was abandoned in favour of a wooden fort, replaced by a stone fort, and named Fort William.
