This place is absolutely beautiful and historic; feels so enriching to walk through and feel the depth of the history here. We are a Bruce family and so it felt important to visit.nOur son loved it as well - peaceful to walk around but he got to run. Interior of the abbey and the history displayed there is wonderful. The burial spot for Robert the Bruce was so detailed and beautiful.nThis is a must do.
Absolutely gorgeous buildings, both the intact and the ruined. Truly enjoyed reading all the history behind it and the mysteries of Robert the Bruce and his burial.nThe palace and ruins were fascinating enter on top of the gate housenThe stained glass windows are seriously impressive! And just the expansive tall ceiling! I was most impressed by the sounds of the church bells, one of the more musical ones I've ever heard!
The place is amazing! Not many people were around and it is very peaceful!nNice museum guide gave me information about the church!nIf anyone is interested about Saint Margharet of Scotland, who had Hungarian roots, it is quite nice to visit and be proud of her extraordinary life!nRead the history before you visit the place, it will me magical!
Dunfermline Abbey and Palace is an architectural heaven and she’s 1,000 years old. Founded in 1128 by King David I, The site has served various roles throughout the centuries, from a place of worship and royal residence to a burial ground. The Abbey itself is an architectural marvel, featuring intricate Medieval, Romanesque and Gothic designs. The Abbey Church, which is a current place of worship, is home to the tomb of Robert the Bruce, one of Scotland’s most celebrated kings. Robert the Bruce successfully led Scotland during the First War of Scottish Independence against England. He restored Scotland to an independent kingdom and is regarded in Scotland as a national hero. Wonderful visit.
Free to enter but you need to go to the gatehouse to get your free ticket . Great ruins and cathedral. Architecture is stunning and is topped off with some great tombs , especially the one of Robert the Bruce. Also look out for the plastercadt of his skull !! There are plenty of small car parks nearby but it can get busy, especially with school trips. A must see if your this way
