History Of Castle Menzies

It is believed that Menzies families were well established in Perthshire by the middle of the 12th century. They had earlier strongholds before the present castle, such as Comrie Castle, which is situated between the River Lyon and the high ground leading up to Drummond Hill to its south and 4 miles west of Castle Menzies, which is just a tiny ruin now.

Garth Castle is another which has early Menzies ownership. It was restored in the middle of the nineteenth century as a private residence. Likewise, nearby Grandtully Castle, currently also a private residence, was, in an older version, once Menzies owned. Others left to the elements and less well-known are on the Isle of Loch Tay (eastern end) and Castle Mains near Ardeonaig, farther west on Loch Tay's south shore.

Later the Castle had to survive through the Covenanter religious troubles of the mid-seventeenth century and the Jacobite rebellions of 1715 and 1745.

In 1715 it was occupied by the Jacobites. Again in the 'Forty-five rebellion it was occupied by the Jacobites, including their leader Prince Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie), who rested on his way to Culloden in 1746, only four days later for the Castle to be garrisoned by the Duke of Cumberland, son of the British Monarch and commander of the Government forces.

The Menzies Charitable Trust was set up in 1993 and ownership of the Castle was transferred to this Trust along with the Castle's original walled garden, which had been purchased in 1984, and the Menzies Mausolem set within the Old Kirk of Weem, the old church in Weem village which had been traditionally in the ownership of Menzies Chiefs, and where many of them who lived in the Castle are buried
