Dunfermline Abbey

Dunfermline has been historically important in Scotland.
There is the Poem...
"The King sat in Dunfermline toun,
Drinking the blude red wine...."

It is associated with Queen Saint Margaret of Scotland who was buried here. There once was a Shrine to her and pilgrims came to pray there. In the Protestant Reformation the shrine, like most signs of Catholic Scotland were destroyed.

The Abbey Church is an interesting place to visit. The pillars are remarkable. Some of the painted ceiling remains, giving an indication of the grandeur and colour of pre- Reformation Scotland.
The site of the Shrine of St Margaret is marked outside behind where the main altar would have been.

The ruins of the monastery lie close to the Abbey Church and are worth visiting too.
And the squirrels are pretty tame.
