About This AttractionSuggest an Edit
This beautiful abbey is definitely worth a visit and is one of the most complete examples of a medieval Cistercian abbey left in Britain. Set along the banks of the River Aire, Kirkstall Abbey is a great place to spot wildlife and to enjoy a family walk. If you visit at the weekend you will get to enjoy great outdoor markets in the Abbey ruins selling hand-made crafts and local produce.
