Strata Florida Abbey is a ruined medieval monastery where generations of Welsh princes are buried. The abbey was founded in 1164 by white-robed Cistercian monks and it soon became the most famous church in Wales, after St Davids. Amid the ruins, you get an impression of how grand the abbey would have been.
