Step back into the world of the Jacobites at Ellisland Museum & Farm on Saturday 4th July for a fun-filled family day of history and hands-on activities.
Led by an educational historian, this interactive event invites children and families to discover the stories, symbols and traditions of the Jacobite era through authentic costumes, historical equipment and exciting activities. Young visitors can explore what life was like during the time of Bonnie Prince Charlie while learning about the Jacobite themes and influences woven through Robert Burns’s poetry and songs.
With opportunities to dress up, handle replica objects and take part in lively historical activities, this is a perfect chance for children to experience Scotland’s past in the inspiring surroundings of Ellisland — the home of Scotland’s national bard.
