Callange
Fife

A location in E Central Fife, Callange lies a mile (1.5 km) southeast of Pitscottie and to the northwest of Baldinnie. Once associated with coal-mining, the location now comprises farms at North Callange, Coaltown of Callange and South Callange. It was here that the Italian Vincenzo Lunardi (1759 - 1806) landed having completed his notable balloon-flight from Edinburgh in 1785.
