    Tips

    Behold the awe-inspiring sight of the weathered ruins of Melrose Abbey. This impressive structure, founded by David I in 1136 for the esteemed Cistercian Order, stands as a testament to the early mastery of masonry. Sadly, in 1385, Richard II's army ravaged much of the abbey, but its remnants remain a captivating sight to behold.



    The abbey is open daily between 9:30am-5:30pm and charges a fee of £6.
