Ionad Naomh Moluag

St Moluag (510-592), a contemporary of St Columba, founded a monastery on Lismore. In medieval times this small church was the cathedral for the scattered diocese of Argyll, since it was easier to get about by sea than by land. The present building is from 1749 but retains part of its 13th century predecessor, notably the doorways, sedilia (priests' seats), piscina (area for washing sacred vessels) and medieval grave slabs. It's now a Church of Scotland parish church and no longer a cathedral; the stain glass windows are modern.

Scenic but scrappy ruins of a castle built in the 13th century over a Viking fortress - Caifen was a Danish prince. It's an oblong tower within a bailey of later date. The even scrappier ruins to its northeast are the Norse "Castle Rachal".
