More about this scene

The island of Iona, near Mull off the west coast of Scotland, is known as the cradle of Scottish Christianity or 'The Mecca of Gael'. St Columba built his monastery here in AD563. The medieval abbey church was rebuilt in the 1930s and became the home of the famous Iona community.
