Greyfriars Kirkyard Trust
GREYFRIARS KIRKYARD TRUST. Greyfriars Bobby, the Skye terrier and Edinburghs most famous dog, is thought to lie about 50 yards from his master, John Gray. The kirk has a significant place in Scottish history. In 1638 the National Covenant, a document of great importance in the history of Scotland, was presented and signed in front of the pulpit. In 1679, some 1200 Covenanters were imprisoned in Greyfriars Kirkyard pending trial. In the 19th Century the minister led a movement to reform worship, introducing the first post-Reformation stained glass windows and one of the first organs in a Presbyterian Church in Scotland.
In Greyfriars Kirkyard lie the remains of many distinguished Scots. The collection of 17th century monuments is the finest in Scotland and one of the best in Britain. The Greyfriars Kirkyard also contains the Covenanters Prison and the Martyrs Monument.
