Inverallochy Castle is a ruined courtyard castle near the village of Inverallochy in the Buchan area of north-east Scotland. It lies {{convert|0.5|mi}} south of Cairnbulg Castle near Fraserburgh. It was described by W. Douglas Simpson as one of the nine castles of the Knuckle, referring to the rocky headland of north-east Aberdeenshire.^[1]

The remains of buildings are arranged around three sides of a courtyard, with a curtain wall across the south side. A tower in the north-east corner remains largely to its full height, while the remaining curtain wall stands up to 10m high. The internal walls have largely collapsed. Evidence of a larger outer courtyard measuring approximately {{convert|60|m}} square to the north and east remains. The ruins are protected as a scheduled monument. The castle appears to have all been built at one time, and architectural evidence suggests an early 16th-century date. It may have been the work of Sir William Comyn of Inverallochy, who was Lord Lyon in 1512–1519.^[3]
