| Eilean Donan Castle, Geoffrey Sutton 1990 |
The picturesque castle of Eilean Donan is on the small island of Eilean Donan, which is at the point where three lochs meet: Loch Duich, Loch Long, and Loch Alsh.
The island is also known as Donan and may be named for Bishop Donan, an Irish Saint who visited in the late 500s.
Defensive structures and castles were built here over the centuries. Spanish soldiers held the castle in 1719 in support of the Jacobites. They were attacked by the English. The rebuilt castle is available for visits.
