Kinloss Abbey is a Cistercian monastery founded in 1150 by King David I of Scotland in the parish of Kinloss, Morayshire. The abbey was established as part of the royal patronage of the Cistercian order in Scotland and became one of the significant religious houses in the north-east. The surviving remains, now fragmentary, include parts of the abbey church and associated domestic buildings which testify to medieval monastic occupation. The site was largely dismantled following the Reformation in the sixteenth century, though some structural elements remain visible as archaeological features in the landscape.
