landscape photographs Standing in the highlands on the north east end of Loch Awe Kilchurn Castle is a 15th century castle now in ruin. This beautiful landscape photograph looks across loch awe to kilchurn castle framed on the shore line trees It became a government stronghold during the Jacobean times but was previously held by the Campbell's for four hundred years.
With the pacification of the Highland Clans and the dispersal of the McGregor's kilchurn Castle outlived its usefulness. Lord Glenorchy became the Duke of Breadalbane as the Campbell's power and wealth grew and the family moved to Taymouth Castle in Perthshire. The Castle was abandoned completely at the end of the 18th Century and then had the misfortune to be burnt out after a "lightning strike" and the structure is beautifully captured in this landscape photograph
