Kildonan Clearances 2013

A major new project about the ‘Clearances’ that will engage with communities in the local area and visitors from all over the world. Museum Without Walls will use digital technology to open the door to the landscape and people of the Clearances – venturing beyond the walls of the museum to begin an exciting journey of discovery and reflection. For many visitors who have ancestors who were involved in the Clearances it will be like going home!
