Dunfermline Abbey and Palace Ruins
As the final resting place of some of Scotland's greatest kings and queens, including Malcolm III and Queen Margaret, the great Benedictine abbey of Dunfermline occupies an especially important place in the national consciousness. The royal association ensured that this became one of the wealthiest and grandest monasteries in the world. The abbey was founded in the 11th century by Queen Margaret and the foundations of the original building lie under the stunning 12th century Romanesque style nave. The royal lodgings at the abbey developed into a spectacular palace, which became the birthplace...

Duthie Park and David Welch Winter Gardens
In the 1900s the David Welch Winter Gardens was added to the park. Unfortunately, it was severely damaged in 1969 due to extreme gales, so it was demolished and replaced with the building we know and love today. The ‘Winter Gardens’ now houses one of the most visited public indoor plant collections in Scotland and provides an oasis away from the typical North East weather! The Winter Gardens provides a unique venue for weddings and hosts an annual carol concert every December.
