Dunstaffnage Castle and Chapel
|
|
Dunstaffnage Castle 4mi/6.4km north of Oban stands guard on a rock over the entrance to Loch Etive. The three round towers and the walls, in places 10ft/3m thick, date from the 15th C when the castle belonged to the Campbell clan, while the residential tower was built in the 17th century. The cannon on the ramparts was salvaged from a Spanish galleon that sank in Tobermory Bay.
