The Burns Monument in Kay Park, commemorates the poet Robert Burns (1759–1796). The monument was opened in 1879, but a fire destroyed part of the site In 2004. The building was restored and reopened as the Burns Monument Centre in 2009.

Kilmarnock has many links with Burns; the first edition of his work was printed here in 1786.

The park is also a nice spot to rest and take a break.

The Burns Monument in Kay Park, Kilmarnock, Scotland, commemorates the poet Robert Burns (1759–1796). It is located at an elevated position within Kay Park, to the east of Kilmarnock Town Centre. The monument was opened in 1879, and is a category B listed building. In 2004, following years of neglect by the local council, fire destroyed most of the building. What was left of the monument was incorporated into the new Burns Monument Centre which opened in 2009. In 2010 the centre was shortlisted for the Carbuncle Cup award run by Building Design.

The Burns Monument Centre provides registration services and here you can carry out local and family history research in its family history centre and local history library. It also still contains part of the McKie Collection of Bursiana that the centre was originally purchased by the council to house after it purchased James McKie's collection.
