The Robert Burns Center is situated in the town's 18th century watermill on the west bank of the River Nith and tells the story of Robert Burns' last years spent among the busy streets and lively atmosphere of Dumfries in the 1790's. The exhibition is illuminated by many original documents and relics of the poet. There is a fascinating scale model of Dumfries in the 1790's and a haunting audio-visual presentation, as well as a gift shop and cafe - gallery with a lively exhibition program.
