Kilchurn Castle (Ref 0011)
© Matt Johnston
Kilchurn Castle is a ruined 14th century structure on
the north-eastern end of Loch Awe, in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.
It was the ancestral home of the Breadalbane family, of the Clan Campbell.
Today, its picturesque setting and romantic state of decay make it one of
the most photographed structures in Scotland.
The ruin is in the care of Historic Scotland (a government body), and is
open to the public during the summer. Access, during summer only, is by
boat from Lochawe pier on the A85 road. Access by land has controversially
been blocked by the operators of the railway network in Scotland.
