Bective Abbey (Irish: Mainistir Bheigthí)[2] is a Cistercian abbey on the River Boyne in Bective, County Meath, Ireland.
The abbey was founded in 1147,[3] and the remaining (well-preserved) structure and ruins primarily date to the 15th century.[4] The site, including a nearby car park, were purchased by the state in 2012, and are managed by the Office of Public Works.[5] The abbey, including its early 13th century church, 15th century cloister, and 16th century tower, is a protected structure and recorded on the register of National monuments of Ireland.[6][7]
