Castle Lachlan, or Old Castle Lachlan, is a ruined 15th-century castle on Loch Fyne, Scotland. It was the stronghold of Clan MacLachlan until 1746 when it was attacked by British Government forces. New Castle Lachlan was built as a replacement in 1790, around 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) to the north-east.
It is protected as a category A listed building,[1] and as a scheduled monument.[2]
