Je hoeft geen notoire boekenwurm te zijn om je in dit bijzondere museum te vermaken. Allereerst het gebouw waarin het museum is gesitueerd. Een prachtig monumentaal pand uit 1622, dat in de 19e eeuw eigendom was van Lady Elizabeth Dowager gravin van Stair. Haar naam bleef aan het pand verbonden. In 1907 werd het gebouw aan de stad geschonken met de opdracht het de bestemming van een museum te geven. Het museum eert de drie grote Schotse schrijvers: Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott en Robert Louis Stevenson. Van deze schrijvers zijn persoonlijke collecties met de meest uiteenlopende voorwerpen, manuscripten en eerste drukken ge\u00ebxposeerd. Van Stevenson is zelfs zijn garderobe aanwezig. Deze werd voor hem gemaakt door de beruchte Deacon Brodie. De man wiens dubbel leven Stevenson inspireerde tot het schrijven van de angstaanjagende thriller The Strange Case Of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":596911,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"tip_category":[3245],"class_list":["post-10453","tip","type-tip","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tip_category-musea"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe Writers` Museum is een museum in Edinburgh<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Writers` Museum eert de drie grote Schotse schrijvers: Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott en Robert Louis Stevenson.
