This is #Dunfermline in #Fife and the tomb of #RobertTheBruce - minus his heart (he had requested his heart be taken to the holy land and it is now in Melrose). I am one of the many thousands of his direct descendants. His daughter Marjory is my 19th great grandmother.
Photos taken by me last year.

Spirit of Scotland sculpture at London Hill. Made to commemorate a battle fought by William Wallace in 1297 and another by Robert The Bruce in 1307. Bruce's battle was a major turning point for him.
