Take a leisurely stroll though the beautiful gardens of St. Mary’s Abbey, a ruined Benedictine complex that dates back to the days of William the Conqueror in the 11th century. This grand abbey was among the richest in the country until Henry VIII reformed the church in the 1500s. Marvel at the impressive arches of the abbey that have survived for almost a millennium. Imagine the pious groups who attended the prosperous institution in its heyday. Try to fill in the missing pieces of the structure with your mind. Admire the arches, columns and intricate designs in the stones of the structure, typical of Romanesque architecture. Some walls of the abbey still remain, as well as a large portion of the King’s Manor, which is now home to part of the University of York. Admire the remaining highlights of the ruins, such as St. Mary’s Tower and the Pilgrim’s Hospital. Many more fascinating remnants can be seen in the nearby York Museum. Amble through the park that encloses the abbey. The spacious green area, which incorporates botanical gardens and wildlife, is a pleasant treat in the heart of the city. Spot squirrels and peacocks as you meander through rare flora, such as monkey puzzle trees and Indian chestnuts. Take a picnic and gather with friends in front of the impressive site of the ruins. Capture photos of the pretty array of trees and flowers by the abbey. The park is a popular spot for students and young lovers and it features on many of York’s walking tours. The abbey ruins are open at all times and free to enter. St. Mary’s Abbey lies in the Yorkshire Museum Gardens in the heart of the city. It overlooks the River Ouse to the west and York Art Gallery to the northeast. You can take a bus to the site from most parts of the city or walk just a few minutes northeast from York Railway Station. ## Plan a trip to see St. Mary's Abbey Price found within the past 48 hours.
