The medieval Kisimul Castle perches on a rock in the middle of a bay. The clan McNeil of Barra, who made a name for themselves as skilled seafarers and feared pirates, lived here from 1314, but the building was ruined by fire at the end of the 18th C. In 1938 the 45th clan chief, an American architect, returned it to its original condition.
