Craigievar Castle is a harled castle or fortified country house about 6 miles (9.7 km) south of Alford in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Built in 1626, it was the seat of Clan Sempill, and the Forbes family lived there for 350 years until 1963, when the 19th Lord Sempill sold it to the National Trust for Scotland. It is a category A listed building and is now a museum.
