*The tour features a special performance on the site of the Chrystal Chapel

*The Chrystal Chapel was erected on a on a small hill, now occupied by St Mary’s Church in Dumfries. This now tranquil space was the site of Sir Christopher Seton’s brutal execution.

Sir Christopher, a staunch supporter and brother-in-law of Bruce, accompanied him to Greyfriars Monastery on the fateful day of John Comyn’s murder. Seton killed Comyn’s uncle, Robert, when he went to attack Bruce. His wife, Lady Christian Bruce, built the chapel in memory of her husband. Guests will be given the special privilege of meeting Lady Christian Bruce and learn about the story of the Chrystal Chapel, with a chance to view the small collection of stones that once formed part of this poignant memorial.
