Historic Scotland invests £1m in Iona Abbey
Historic Scotland has completed a £1m redevelopment project to enhance the visitor experience at Iona Abbey on the island of Iona.
The investment included the creation of new interpretation and permanent exhibitions, including a museum devoted to the most important collection of early Christian sculptures in Britain and Ireland.
There is also a new audio tour, supplied by Antenna Audio, which takes visitors on a journey through Iona Abbey from the 6th century to the present day.
Iona Abbey is one of Scotland's most historic and sacred sites. It was founded by St Columba and his Irish followers in AD 563 and remains a focus for Christian pilgrimage, retaining its spiritual atmosphere.
