Template:Expand Lindisfarne is a small island off the eastern coast of Great Britain. The island is most famous for its monestary which, in 793, became the target of Viking raiders in their first raid on Europe. The monestary did not shut down for over eighty years after the incident, when the monks eventually fled. The island is now very popular with tourists. It currently has a population of just over 150 people[1].
