Dun Aisgain Broch is a prehistoric circular stone tower located on the Isle of Mull in Argyllshire, Scotland. The structure dates to the Iron Age, a period when such brochs were constructed across northern Scotland, typically serving defensive and residential purposes for local communities. The broch exhibits the characteristic thick-walled circular design typical of its monument class, with the remains preserving evidence of Iron Age settlement patterns in the Hebridean region. Like many Scottish brochs, Dun Aisgain represents an important archaeological record of Iron Age fortified architecture and settlement in the western isles.
