Kisiwa cha Iona ni kisiwa kidogo magharibi kwa Uskoti Kaskazini kilicho maarufu kutokana na monasteri iliyoanzishwa huko na Kolumba mwaka 563.

Kwa karne tatu monasteri hiyo ya Ukristo wa Kikelti ilipata kuwa kituo muhimu cha uinjilishaji kwa Uskoti mzima (Wapikti na Waskoti wa kale) na hata mbali zaidi.
