About Coaltown of Wemyss

  • The Wemyss Caves, which run beneath the cliffs between East Wemyss and Coaltown of Wemyss, contain one of the most important collections of Pictish rock carvings in Scotland. The caves were used by Pictish people from around the third to the ninth century AD, and the carvings include animals, symbols, and abstract designs that are unique in Scottish archaeology.
  • Wemyss Castle, which stands above the caves, was the home of the Wemyss family for over 600 years. It was at Wemyss Castle in 1565 that Mary Queen of Scots first met her future husband Lord Darnley, an encounter that would have fateful consequences for both of them.
  • The Wemyss collieries, operated by the Wemyss family from the seventeenth century onwards, were among the first coal mines in Scotland to use steam engines for pumping and winding. The family's investment in new technology made the Wemyss coalfield one of the most productive in Fife.
  • The Save Wemyss Ancient Caves Society has been working since 1986 to protect and conserve the Wemyss Caves, which are threatened by coastal erosion and vandalism. The society runs guided tours of the caves and campaigns for their recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
