Staff at Museum nan Eilean have finally moved into their new state-of-the-art premises, but delays with the kitchens have put the planned summer opening on hold.

Tha Dualchas a' Chaisteil a' leantainn turas Caisteal Leòdhais a bha uair na thogalach uasal Bhictòrionach ach a thuit às a chèile, agus e a-nis ag atharrachadh gu taigh-tasgaidh spaideil dualchasach sònraichte, agus ionad aoigheachd sònraichte. Mu dheireadh thall tha luchd-obrach Museum nan Eilean air gluasad a-steach dhan togalach ùr gleansach aca, ach tha dàil le na cidsinean a' cur mail air na na planaichean samhraidh son fosgladh. Ach tha fìor dheagh naidheachd air a h-uile duine a mhisneachadh... chaidh nithean luachmhor nàiseanta a thabhainn dhan taigh-tasgaidh, agus an t-ullachadh air tòiseachadh. Aig a' cheart àm tha iomadach seann charaid a' tighinn a chèilidh son boillsgeadh fhaighinn, nam measg buidheann de bhoireannaich
aig a bheil ceangal a tha cha mhòir leth cheud bliadhna leis a' chaisteal.

Staff at Museum nan Eilean have finally moved into their new state-of-the-art premises, but delays with the kitchens have put the planned summer opening on hold. But some incredible news has kept spirits high - some treasured national artefacts have been offered to the museum, and preparations are underway. Meanwhile, old friends aplenty are dropping by the castle for a sneak preview, including some larger-than-life ladies whose connection to the place dates back almost half a century.
