Several ships have been named Stirling Castle for Stirling Castle in Scotland:

  • Stirling Castle (1801 ship) was launched at Calcutta. A French privateer captured her in September or October 1804 while Stirling Castle was on passage from Calcutta to Colombo, and took her to Mauritius. She was sold to Arab merchants and later lost.
  • Stirling Castle (1829 brig), a vessel that ran aground off the coast of Australia in 1836.
  • SS Stirling Castle, a steamship built at Glasgow in 1882; later renamed SS Nord America as a passenger and cargo line. Scrapped in 1911.
  • MV Stirling Castle, a liner built in Belfast in 1935 and scrapped in 1966
