Description
The Abbey, whose foundation goes back to 1072, was built by King David I of Scotland in honour of his mother the saintly Queen Margaret.

Over the centuries since that time the Abbey has exerted a profound Christian influence and, in these present days, the Abbey Church of Dunfermline continues to witness to the Christian Faith in its worship services, and varied organisational life.
