Visitors to the Abbey can explore the extensive ruins of the remarkable Abbey church and also the remaining foundations of the other buildings, which comprised the Abbey.
Unusual scupltures abound – including hobgoblins, cooks with ladles and even a bagpipe playing pig!
Melrose Abbey is also said to be the burial place of Robert the Bruce’s heart, which is marked with a commemorative carved stone plaque within the grounds.
