Glenluce Abbey, near to Glenluce, Scotland, was a Cistercian monastery called also Abbey of Luce or Vallis Lucis and founded around 1190 by Rolland or Lochlann, Lord of Galloway and Constable of Scotland. Following the Scottish Reformation in 1560, the abbey fell into disuse.
On 23 January 1497, James IV erected "Ballinclach in Glenluce" into a burgh of barony in favour of the abbey, although there is no record of the burgh operating.
Really interesting place to visit. Structure is quote impressive and the grounds are well maintained

Wonderful buildings some parts still intact and sooooo peaceful. We had it all to ourselves the day we visited. The history fascinated me as i had also visited some of the other sites connected to it, it brought the history alive. A million photographs now reside in my camera. A wee added bonus was the cute donkeys in the field beside the abbey.
