Malmesbury Abbey

Malmesbury Abbey, Malmesbury, Wiltshire, England

Malmesbury Abbey, at Malmesbury in Wiltshire, England, is a religious house dedicated to Saint Peter and Saint Paul. It was one of the few English houses with a continual history from the 7th century through to the Dissolution of the Monasteries.

Malmesbury is a truly wonderful place to visit for the day or for a short break. Our stewards count approximately 65,000 visitors through the Abbey's Norman porch each year.

We try to keep the Abbey open every single day, but we do close after Christmas & New Years Day and also for occasional services, conferences, filming, organ tuning or maintenance.

Please check our website for closure details but do contact us if you would like to be absolutely sure that we are open on the day you plan to visit. We never mind a phone call or an e-mail.

Open Every Day, 9am - 5pm (4pm in winter).

Admission Free.
