About Lochmaben Castle

Lochmaben Castle is the much reduced remains of a royal castle originally built by the English in the 14th century.

Lochmaben Castle was extensively rebuilt during the reign of James IV (1488-1513). Largely dismantled after its capture by James VI in 1588.

View exterior only. The extensive remains of earthworks, including a rectangular 'peel' (timber palisaded enclosure) built by Edward I of England, are visible around the masonry castle.
