Old photograph of Dunollie Castle near Oban, Scotland. The ruined Dunollie Castle crowns a promontory to the north of the town of Oban and is surrounded on three sides by the sea. It is the ancient stronghold of the MacDougalls, the Lords of Lorn, barons so powerful that they once owned a third of Scotland. Their descendant MacDougall of MacDougall, Chief of the Clan MacDougall is still in possession of the castle and some surrounding lands, though on a slightly smaller scale.
