The 16 feet tall steel statue of Magnus the Viking was erected in 2013 to commemorate the 750th anniversary of the the Battle of Largs in 1263 when the Scots defeated the Viking army, which led to Scotland regaining control of Kintyre and the Western Isles.

Largs is a popular Scottish seaside resort, complete with Victorian promenade, pier and tons of ice cream shops!
The Island of Cumbrae is just a mile offshore and there is a regular ferry service to the island. In the summer the famous Waverley Paddle Steamer makes regular trips, which is well worth seeing.
