The towering ruins of this vast abbey complex are testament to the power of both royalty and the medieval church. Founded by David I in 1138, the abbey was linked to a nearby royal castle. Alexander III married Yolande de Dreux here. You can explore the fine nave, cloisters and herb garden. The abbey museum houses many precious artefacts including an ivory comb from the 100s that shows Hercules slaying a figure slaying a dragon. 1 Apr to 30 Sept: Daily, 9.30am to 5pm (last entry 4.30pm). 1 Oct to 31 Mar: Daily, 10am to 4pm (last entry 3.15pm). We recommend booking online to guarantee entry.
