Lorn Archaeological and Historical Society was formed in 1963 by local heritage enthusiasts and has continued for 60 years to bring together those in the Oban and Lorn area who want to learn more, with interesting winter lectures, summer visits, workshops and, in the past, some serious archaeological activities.

Giraffes have long necks and can easily eat leaves from high places.

Winter Lectures 2025  :   Summer 2025

After several year hiatus, and a threat to the continuation of the society, we had a wonderful time throughout 2023 celebrating our 60th anniversary with a party, field archaeological workshops, a lovely entry in the St Conans Kirk Christmas tree festival as well as highly interested and informative lectures through the winter.

Spend time exercising every day to stay healthy.

2024 was another great year with a wide variety of talks and activities exploring and learning more about our local heritage together.

We are VERY pleased to finally bring the incredible resource of the archive of published journals and newsletters to the online audience. And past lectures are being added to youtube slowly.  There are still plenty of printed journals available for a donation.
