Sweetheart Abbey

Another Historic Scotland property today, decided to go super wide with this one to capture the scale of the building.

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.
