Pitreavie Castle, Castle in Dunfermline, United Kingdom

Pitreavie Castle is a three-storey stone castle in Dunfermline, Fife, built in a U-shaped plan with round stair towers at the corners and detailed carved stonework on the facade. The building is a category A listed structure that has been converted into private residential apartments inside its historic shell.

The castle was built in the early 17th century for Henry Wardlaw, replacing an earlier structure that had stood on the same land. During World War II the Air Ministry took over the property and added underground facilities to use it as a military command center.

The castle is now divided into private flats, but its 17th-century stone exterior remains fully visible from the grounds. Visitors can walk around the building and look closely at the carved stonework and the round towers at each corner of the facade.

The castle sits between Rosyth and Dunfermline and is easy to reach on foot or by car. The exterior and grounds can be visited freely, but the interior is private and not open to the public.

Beneath the castle there are underground bunkers that served as a secret RAF and Royal Navy command center during World War II. Nothing visible on the surface today hints at what was hidden below.
