Uncover 1,500 Years of History at the Museum of the Isles
Journey through the fascinating history of the Highlands and Islands as you explore the legacy of Clan Donald—Scotland’s largest and most influential clan. Six captivating galleries bring to life over 1,500 years of culture, power, and tradition in the region once known as the Kingdom of the Isles.
Children can immerse themselves in history with dress-up activities, interactive museum trails, and hands-on sessions. Our rotating exhibitions ensure there’s always something new to discover, while our extensive library offers a treasure trove of resources for genealogy research, with staff on hand to assist (see website for details).
Nestled within the breathtaking landscape of Armadale Castle Gardens, the museum forms part of this 5-star visitor attraction—the historic former seat of the Macdonalds of Sleat. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or tracing your family roots, a visit promises something for everyone.
