Castle Menzies
 Castle
Menzies is located at Weem, near Aberfeldy in Perth and Kinross
and is a Z-plan tower of late 16th century in origin. Replacing
a castle which was burned to the ground in 1502, this Castle
Menzies was built with local stone and decorated with blue
slate and occupies land which is ancient Menzies homeland.
Owned by the clan Menzies chiefs until 1918, it is now in
the care of the Menzies Clan Society. Of particular interest
are the great hall, with its ceiling commemorating the Union
of 1707, Prince Charlie's Room, where the Young Pretender
slept for two nights and the anteroom with its collection
of memorobilia. The western wing was added in 1840 and was
designed by William Burn.
