Vandring

Our Lady of the Isles (Gaelic, Bana Thighearna nan Eilean) is a striking statue of the Madonna and Child. It was commissioned in response to proposals from the Ministry of Defence to establish a large missile testing range on the island, which threatened the local way of life, culture, and language. The resistance was led by Canon John Morrison, the local parish priest. The statue was designed by Scottish sculptor Hew Lorimer and completed in 1957. It is made from granite and stands as a symbol of the islanders’ devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Towering 9 metres (30 feet) above South Uist, 'Our Lady of the Isles' is an iconic landmark. The statue, made from granite, depicts Madonna and child. It is considered to be one of the finest works of sculptor Hew Lorimer who created the statue in 1957. The face of the Madonna is supposed to resemble a typical island woman.

From a distance you can see the nine-meter-high sculpture with Madonna and the baby Jesus. The view from the end of the footpath is definitely worth it!
