Ruperra Castle or Rhiwperra Castle (Welsh: Castell Rhiw'r Perrai) is a Grade II* Listed building and Scheduled Ancient Monument, situated in Lower Machen in the county borough of Caerphilly, Wales. Built in 1626, the castle is in a ruinous condition as at 2023. Its grounds are listed on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.

Originally a small medieval fortress, it is thought that the palace was first built by William de Braose who became Bishop in 1266. The palace was abandoned as a residence following damage in the Owain Glyndwr rebellion of 1402-05, with the Bishops thereafter preferring their more secure dwelling at Mathern in Monmouthshire. Although the palace seems to have remained intact until at least 1601, it was probably destroyed during the English Civil War when many castles were similarly slighted by Parliamentarian forces. The only substantial remains today are the impressive gatehouse, the rest of the site is now an ornamental park which was developed in the 1970’s.

Built in 1626 by Sir Thomas Morgan, Steward to the Earl of Pembroke, it was one of the first of the 'mock' castles to be built in Wales.  In 2022 Cadw designated the castle gardens and park Grade II on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.

No access to the castle, blocked off by gates, according to local press landowner wants to knock it down and put houses on it.

Ruperra Castle was built in 1626 by the Steward to the Earl of Pembroke, Sir Thomas Morgan. It's actually a mock castle – a residence with a castle-like appearance rather than a fortress. Now, the castle lies in ruin and is quite something to behold.
