Castle Menzies, Perthshire, Scotland

Castle Menzies is a spectacular 16th century Scottish castle, restored during the 20th century by the Menzies clan society. The castle was the seat of the Chiefs of Clan Menzies for over 500 years. Situated in a strategic location, it was involved in much of the turbulent history of the Highlands. During the Second Jacobite Rising, the castle first hosted both Bonnie Prince Charlie, who rested on his way to Clawdon in 1746, and then just four days later, the Duke of Cumberland, son of the British monarch and commander of the government forces.
