The Barra Castle, with its imposing wall, was built in the early 17th century. At that time, it was owned by various royal families and future generations until it came under possession of the Setons. After extensive reconstruction of the castle, it was passed onto the Reids. In 1752, the Ramsays took over the estate. Today the castle is called Castle Kisimul or Kisimul Barra Castle. It is the only castle built in the Middle Ages that has been preserved. Today, it is one Scottish tourist attraction that absolutely must be seen. As the castle is located on an island, the only access is by boat.
According to legend, this proud castle with its huge fortifications was simultaneously used as a reference and for defence. Anyone who has seen this incredibly large fortress will be convinced that one could indeed lead a safe life there. The Mcneil Clan apparently resided here for a long time. It should be noted that this clan, among others, gave rise to infamous pirates. When the clan came into financial difficulty, the castle had to be sold. Many people living there emigrated. Rober Lister Macneil, an American architect, bought the castle in 1937, thereby returning ownership to the family. He restored the building and once again created a residence for the family. Macneil is the official 45th Lord of Barra. As his descendant, his son, the 46th Lord of Barra, decided that the Kisimul Castle of Barra should be placed in the custody of Historic Scotland from the year 2000 to 3000. Thus, the property will be preserved for future generations and the castle can be maintained.
Even when crossing by boat to Castlebay, the full majesty of the castle can be appreciated. This ancient, yet well-preserved complex sets off an air of magic. Entering the fortress through the enormous gates causes medieval feelings to resurface. The premises - most of which can be viewed - also provide a warm but amazing feeling. In the remaining rooms are the living areas of the family Macneil, which, of course, are not available for viewing.
While the surrounding wall had once blocked out intruders and uninvited guests, current visitors can now enjoy a breathtaking view of the bay and of Castlebay. Over time, the island has lost most of its land. Today it appears as though the castle were sitting on top of a water-covered hill. But this does not detract from the beauty and magical aura of the entire complex. This only adds to the impressions gained during a visit to Barra Castle.

Hi Antonia,Thank you for your review of my place of upibgnring. It is indeed a beautiful place and one that it extremely difficult to describe to people who have never been to Barra and indeed experience the culture of the highlands and islands. I congratulate you on your opinions and your understanding of the people. Life is hard there in a raw and interesting way. You need to have a sense of humour to survive!! I lived there until I was 18 yrs old and of course didn't appreciate what I had! Who does then! I now live in Australia where many Scots and others from the clearances and other countries, did very well. However I would like to point out to some others, the pain it must have caused at the time. The majority of these people did not want to leave their homes. How would you feel if someone came along and threw you out of your home I sincerely doubt that they were promising a better life they didn't care the people were just cargo. What did the people know about where they were going? No mail, no email, no knowing if your loved ones had survived.I view this as a mature person living in Australia who still gets homesick, all the more from your desscription of being on Barra. The people involved in the deaths and rescue i know from my life on Barra. If anyone is interested in the clearances a book by David Craig On the crofters trail makes for interesting reading.I love your view on Barra, at one stage my classmates and I commuted to Stornoway on the same planes every term for our last two years of high school. You get the sense of humour that pervades any remote community in particular the islands, in my case!Slainte mhathSheila
