Skipness Castle and Kilbrannan Chapel

Skipness Castle was built in the early 13th century by the Clan MacSween. It is located on the east side of Kintyre (Scottish Gaelic: Cinn Tìre). This is a peninsula in the southwest of Argyll and Bute, Scotland (Scottish Gaelic: Earra-Ghàidheal agus Bòd, Alba). The remains of the castle, to which additions were made during the 13th, 14th and 16th centuries, are near the village of Skipness (Sgibinis). Nearby are the remains of the 13th century Kilbrannan Chapel which is also known as St Brendan's Chapel and is dedicated to Saint Brendan (c. AD 484 – c. 577).
