About

Dunfermline Abbey, which dates back to the 11th century, and the magnificent ruins of neighbouring Dunfermline Palace, are a highly-visible reminder of the significant part Dunfermline played in Scotland’s history.  

Once the capital of Scotland, many of the country’s medieval kings and queens ruled from Dunfermline – and were buried in grand Dunfermline Abbey, including Robert The Bruce, Scotland’s Warrior King. Dunfermline Abbey’s highly-impressive nave is a stunning example of Romanesque architecture and its medieval interior remains worthy of royalty. 

Dunfermline Abbey is open to visitors throughout the year and remains a place of worship, with Church of Scotland services held on Sunday mornings.  

Opening Times:

29 Mar to 30 Sept:  Mon to Sat, 10am to 4.30pm; Sun, 2pm to 4.30pm (last entry 4pm).
