Oban, Dunollie Castle
Dunollie Castle (Scottish Gaelic: Dłn Ollaigh) is a small ruin located on a hill north of Oban. It commands a view of the town, harbour and, outlying isles. Ewan MacDougall, the third chief of the MacDougalls, probably built a castle there in the 13th century. The existing castle ruins date from the 15th century.
