'''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<ref>http://www.lindisfarne.org.uk/general/welcome.htm</ref>.
