Strathnaver Museum

Bettyhill, Sutherland

Find Strathnaver Museum in the heart of Mackay Country where people have lived for over 8,000 years! Housed in the former parish church of St Columba, it is a treasure trove of unusual objects, gripping stories and wonderful Clan Mackay memorabilia.

 A visit to Strathnaver Museum is a journey through Strathnaver’s mystical past, through the emergence of the Clan Mackay to the tragedy of the Highland Clearances.
