Sweetheart Abbey details...
Sweetheart Abbey was founded in 1273 by Lady Dervorgilla of Galloway in memory of her husband John Balliol.
On her death, she was laid to rest next to her husband’s embalmed heart and the monks named their abbey in memory of her.
Admire the remarkably complete abbey church, still doing its best to inspire and overawe 700 years on.
