Old Tulliallan Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Fife, Scotland.

The remains of Old Tulliallan Castle stand on a natural rock outcrop, featuring stone walls with a principal doorway protected by a portcullis system.

Edward I of England ordered the strengthening of the initial fortification in 1304, making it a strategic point near the main ferry across the Forth.

The castle changed ownership between prominent Scottish families, including the Douglases, Edmonstones, Blackadders, and Bruces of Carnock throughout its active period.

The site maintains its medieval defensive features, including a broad ditch and stone-packed causeway that provided controlled access to the castle entrance.

The castle's vaulted undercroft contains multiple living spaces with fireplaces and stepped window seats, demonstrating medieval domestic architecture techniques.
