Tobar Domhnaich

Holy Well (medieval)

What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Tobar Domhnaich as Holy Well (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Tobar Domhnaich is a medieval holy well associated with Saint Donnan, a 7th-century Irish monk and martyr linked to the monastery on the Isle of Eigg in the Inner Hebrides. The well may have been a site of pilgrimage and healing, reflecting the broader Celtic Christian tradition of attributing curative properties to waters connected to saints.
