Denny Abbey and Farmland Museum

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Well-preserved remains of 12th century Benedictine Abbey, still featuring Norman interiors. Over the centuries the abbey has also been home to the Knights Templar and Franciscan nuns. This attraction now combines with the adjacent Farmland Museum.
Museum: Traditional farmworkers' cottage, fenman's hut, village shop, stone barn and workshops all recreate farm life in Cambridgeshire over the centuries. Lending to the historical presence is adjacent Denny Abbey.
