Church Overview
Built on the site of a Celtic Christian Culdee church. Abbey founded in 1217 by Malcolm, 7th Earl of Fife; dedicated to St Mary and St Serf. Much of the original building remains, although a great deal of it is in ruins. The monks' choir forms the present parish church, in continuous use since 1633. Modernised in 1824 and restored in 1905 by Sir Robert Rowand Anderson. Many features of interest.
