The history of creation St. Kilda is an isolated archipelago at 64 kilometers (40 miles) west of the northwest of North Wist Island in the northern Atlantic Ocean. It is often included in the archipelago of the External Hebrides. Isle of Soei is the largest point of the state of Great Britain. The largest archive is the island of Hirta, the sea cliffs of which are the highest in the UK. The Gaelic-speaking population may never have exceeded 180 people and after 1851 has never been more than 100. Despite the fact that St. Kilda lived permanently for two millennia, and despite the unique lifestyle of its inhabitants, the entire population was evacuated in 1930. At present, the only houses are military. The administrative islands are part of the local government district.

Animal world of the national park St. Kilda is a nesting site for many species of seabirds. The largest colony of northern gannets in the world, numbering 30,000 pairs, is up to 24 percent of their total number in the world. There are 49 thousand nesting pairs of northern patches, up to 90% of their numbers in Europe; 136,000 pairs of Atlantic deadlocks, about 30 percent of their total nesting are in the UK. Until 1828, the islands of St. Kilda were their nesting place in the UK, but with them they spread and founded colonies in other places, such as Fowlsheugh. On the island of Borei there are about 300 wild sheep of the same breed.

Interesting facts The oldest buildings on St. Kilde are the biggest riddle. The large coves are located closer to the center of the island from the existing village in An Lag Bho'n Tuath ("hollow in the north") and contain curious scaphoid stone rings or "masonry". Ground samples indicate the date of 1850 BC. But they are found only at St. Kilda, and their appointment is unknown. In the Gleann Mòr area (north-west of the Bay Village behind the central ridge of Hirta), there are 20 "horn-like structures", significantly ruined buildings with a main courtyard of approximately 3×3m, two or more smaller rooms and a courtyard formed two curved or horny walls. Again, nothing like this exists either in England or in Europe, and their original designation remains unknown. In Gleann Mòr there is also the "home of the Amazon". According to Martin (1703), a woman warrior is mentioned in many tales of St. Kilda.
