Seton Collegiate Church is a fifteenth-century ecclesiastical foundation located in East Lothian, Scotland. The church was established as a collegiate institution, a form of religious community common in late medieval Scotland, and reflects the wealth and piety of the Seton family who held considerable lands in the region. The surviving remains demonstrate the architectural character typical of Scottish collegiate churches of the period, with stone construction indicative of permanent institutional building. The site remains an important example of late medieval religious architecture and patronage in southeastern Scotland.
