The Bannockburn Heritage Centre is situated at one of the most important historic battle sites in Scotland. In June 1314, King Robert the Bruce routed the forces of King Edward II to win freedom for the Scots from English domination. Near the Centre, is the famous Borestone site which by tradition was Bruce’s command post before the battle; it is marked by an impressive equestrian statue of Bruce by Pilkington Jackson.
