1. St. Clement's Church
At the southernmost point of Harris, in the village of Rodel 3 miles southeast of Leverburgh, lies St. Clement's Church—the most impressive pre-Reformation House of God in the Outer Hebrides. The large cruciform church, which sits atop a small hillock, was built around 1500. Head inside to see the magnificently sculpted 16th-century wall tomb of the church's builder, clan chief Alasdair Crotach MacLeod of Dunvegan Castle.

2. Old St. Peter's Kirk
This roofless, ruined parish church on the banks of the River Thurso was once the principal place of worship in northeast Scotland. Dating from (at least) the early 1100s, the church is known for its decorative window carved from a single slab of stone, as well as its atmospheric graveyard. Look for headstone emblems that represent the trade of the person buried beneath.
