Glenluce Abbey

The ruins of Glenluce Abbey. The Abbey located near Glenluce, Wigtownshire, in South West Scotland, was founded as a Cistercian Monastery around 1190 by Richard of Lochlann, Lord of Galloway and Constable of Scotland. Following the Scotland Reformation in 1560 the Abbey fell into disuse.
