'''Fyvie''' is a village and parish in the [[Formartine]] area of [[Aberdeenshire]], lying alongside the [[River Ythan]] and the A947 road. It is thought that the name Fyvie is derived from ''Fia-chein'' meaning 'Deer hill'.<br />
<br />
==Fyvie Castle==<br />
[[Fyvie Castle]] is reputed to have been built by King William the Lyon in the early thirteenth century. It was the site of an open-air court held by King Robert the Bruce and home to the future King Charles I as a child.<br />
<br />
The village's school, with around 125 pupils, serves the surrounding rural area.<br />
<br />
==Church==<br />
St Peter's Church was built in the early nineteenth century on the site of a medieval church. Built into the east gable are three Class I Pictish symbol stones and a Class III Pictish cross.<ref name=church /><br />
<br />
The church displays some Louis Comfort Tiffany stained glass windows.<br />
<br />
==Folk tradition==<br />
The song ''The Bonnie Lass o' Fyvie'' tells of a captain of dragoons who dies for the love of a Fyvie girl. Additionally, the song, ''Andrew Lammie'', tells of the doomed love of a local miller's daughter, Annie, for Lord Fyvie's trumpeter. Both of these songs may have historical basis - the young woman's grave is said to be in Fyvie churchyard.<br />
<br />
One of the prophecies of Thomas the Rhymer relates to Fyvie, predicting it will never flourish until a particular three stones are found (a prophecy obviously pre-dating the church with its three Pictish runestones).<br />
