Museo | Mauchline | Scotland | Reino Unido

La Casa Museo Burns en Mauchline, Escocia, está dedicada a la vida y obra del poeta nacional escocés Robert Burns. Burns pasó aquí una parte significativa de su periodo creativo. El museo se encuentra en un edificio que originalmente sirvió como residencia para Burns y su esposa Jean Armour. Alberga una extensa colección de manuscritos originales, objetos personales y publicaciones que brindan una visión de la época de Burns en Mauchline y sus relaciones con las personalidades locales.

Una destacada pieza en exhibición es la edición original de "Kilmarnock" de los poemas de Burns, considerada la primera recopilación de sus obras. El museo también muestra una colección de "Mauchline Ware" - cajas de madera decorativas fabricadas en la región - así como piedras de curling de granito, por las que Mauchline también es conocida.

Además de las exposiciones, el museo ofrece una visión audiovisual de la vida de Robert Burns. Justo enfrente del museo se encuentra el Antiguo Cementerio, donde están enterrados cuatro de los hijos de Burns y algunos de sus contemporáneos. En las proximidades también se encuentra el Poosie Nansie's Inn, una posada mencionada por Burns en sus poemas.

El Burns House Museum es un lugar destacado para los interesados en la literatura y ofrece una profunda mirada a la vida y obra de Robert Burns, así como a la historia de Mauchline.

This was an unexpected find, but glad we called in. A small museum but very well set out and very informative. If you are driving through Mauchlin flow the signs to the car park then there is a 5 minutes walk back up to the main street through very interesting alleys. The whole stop could be less than an hour, but it would be an hour well spent.

I gave this place 4 stars even though I'm disabled and couldn't go in, my wife went in and videod it for me. It's easy for the trustees to say it's an old building so can't be made disabled friendly. Sorry guys make a DVD and sell it, you would be quid in and make money
