Robert Burns in the Royal Collection

In the week of Burns Night, join us for this celebration of Scotland's national poet, focusing on the 'Tam O'Shanter' chair on display in the Great Gallery, at the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Our experts will discuss this extraordinary, gothic-style armchair, made from a portion of the roof of the old Kirk of Alloway, Ayrshire which serves as the setting for Burns’s celebrated poem Tam O’Shanter, written in 1790.
