Culross is a beautiful village in Firth, Scotland. The entire village is quite historic and worth visiting. The Abbey is located up a steep hill--the streets can be difficult to navigate unless on foot. Next to the ruins is the Culross Abbey Church, which is still in use.
Several websites provide excellent information about the Abbey and the village itself. Among them are:
