Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum & Arts Centre
Taigh Chearsabhagh
A community museum and arts centre beside the Lochmaddy ferry pier, showing North Uist's history and contemporary art.
Taigh Chearsabhagh is in Lochmaddy, the ferry port of North Uist. It was converted from a former 18th-century merchant's warehouse and combines a museum, gallery, studios, and café. It exhibits local history, Gaelic culture, and works by island artists, and several outdoor sculptural installations are scattered nearby. It is a good stop after disembarking from the ferry or while waiting for a boat. Closed on Sundays. Admission is free or a small fee.
