St Conans Kirk

St Conan's Kirk is a beautiful and fascinating church in Argyll, in Loch Awe, near Oban. It was designed and built by Walter Campbell to save his mother from having to travel six miles to the nearest church! A self-taught designer, Walter designed it to contain most architectural styles, and visitors find something new to see every visit. It is open most days from 9 to 5 pm, and entry is by donation. Highlights include the Cloisters, the stunning Ambulatory and the Bruce Chapel, which contains a fragment of Robert the Bruce's bone. Your donation is used for the program of repairs. More information about special events is on the website.
