Burns National Heritage Park
|
- An original manuscript of ‘Auld Lang Syne’, the world’s favourite song, takes pride of place in the museum.
- Burns Cottage was built in 1757 by Robert Burns's father, William Burnes.
- Spectacular views of Burns’s beloved Alloway can be found from the roof of Burns Monument, which is designed to represent the three historical divisions of Ayrshire: Cunningham, Kyle and Carrick.
For 200 years the beautiful scenery of Alloway and its special connection with the life and works of Robert Burns have drawn visitors to this stunning Ayrshire village. Burns National Heritage Park offers visitors a chance to experience the rich heritage of Burns within the environment that inspired his imagination. Supported by modern visitor facilities and easily accessible by road and public transport, the park is an ideal destination for young and old alike. MORE>
