Iona

Iona is a small island off of Mull in the Inner Hebrides, in Western Scotland. Iona Abbey, now completely restored, was founded in 563 by Columba, and became an important center of Christianity. The Book of Kells was probably produced here at the end of the 8th century.

While the abbey has been restored to death, I found a few old parts.
