Historic Kilmun

At Historic Kilmun we have some unique experiences we want to share with you. Historic Kilmun, a former church, with the Argyll Mausoleum at its side, overlooks the Holy Loch on a site with a religious history dating back to the 7th Century.

The current building, erected in 1841 and set in a historic graveyard, boasts one of the very few working hydraulic water-powered organs in Britain together with impressive stained-glass windows by Stephen Adam. Adjoining the church is the Argyll Mausoleum a burial place of Campbells of Argyll from the 16th century until the last Duke was interred there in 1949.

Historic Kilmun is open to individual visitors and groups; from April to October, Thursday-Monday between 11.00 – and 15.00, with guided tours available.

There is a gift shop and a small tea room open for group visits. There are regular organ recitals and musical and choral performances so follow us on Facebook and Twitter for details.

If you want to stage your event Historic Kilmun can be hired on an exclusive basis.
