The church in Killin was rebuilt in 1700s but the original church is thought to date back to the 9th century. In the church is a seven sided font, thought to be over 1000 years old and the only seven sided font discovered in Scotland. The first minister of the new church was the Rev. James Stewart who translated the New Testament into Scottish Gaelic and whose ministry had far reaching consequences for the whole of Scotland.
