Iona Abbey is located on the Isle of Iona, just off the Isle of Mull on the West Coast of Scotland. The abbey was founded by St. Columba after he landed here from Ireland in AD563.

Despite attacks by the Vikings in 795, 802, 806 and 825, during which many monks were killed, Christianity clung on here. Iona also remained the burial place of successive Scottish Kings until Macbeth, who died in 1057.

One of the oldest and most important religious centres in western Europe, Iona abbey is considered the point of origin for the spread of Christianity throughout Scotland.
