Kilmory Knap Chapel

Kilmory Knap Chapel is a 13th century christian chapel, located at the tiny hamlet of Kilmory, in Knapdale, Argyll and Bute, on the west coast of Scotland.

Kilmory Knap Chapel is on Ellary Estate, next to Loch Sween, on the opposite shore to Keills Chapel. When the roof was lost the building was used as a burial enclosure. The structure was re-roofed in 1934 to hold a large collection of Early Christian cross slabs, late medieval graveslabs and standing crosses of West Highland type, from the 14th to 16th centuries. The chapel is an important historical site of Clan Macmillan (of Knap). In the church is Macmillan’s Cross, a well-preserved piece of medieval carving, portraying the Chief of the clan with hunting dogs.[1] The chapel is cared for by Historic Scotland on behalf of the State.
