The birthplace of the pioneering naturalist, author, and early conservationist. Born in Dunbar in 1838, Muir emigrated with his parents to the United States where he campaigned for the preservation of natural environments through his work as a geologist and botanist. This centre is a chance to figuratively follow in his footsteps as he traversed the then largely unspoilt wilderness of North America, read extracts from his journals and view some of his sketches of wildlife and plants.
