Dumferline Abbey, King's Robert Bruce tomb. Dumferline Abbey, one of the most important sites in Scotland, is a large Benedictine abbey founded in 1128 by King David I of Scotland. King Robert the Bruce was buried in 1329 in the choir. Bruce’s heart rests in Melrose, but his bones were reinterred with fitting pomp in 1818 below the pulpit of the New church.
