Statue of Robert the Bruce, Historical statue at Stirling Castle, Scotland
The stone statue presents Robert the Bruce in chain mail armor, with his hand placed on the sword pommel and a shield behind.
Andrew Currie created this monument in 1876, during a period when Scottish communities celebrated their national identity through public sculptures.
The statue appears on the Clydesdale Bank twenty-pound note, representing the importance of Robert the Bruce in Scottish heritage.
Visitors can reach the statue by following the path to Stirling Castle's esplanade, which opens daily from morning until evening.
The sculpture faces south toward Bannockburn battlefield, where Robert the Bruce led Scottish forces to victory against English armies.
