Corcomroe Abbey is an early 13th-century Cistercian monastery in the north of the Burren region of County Clare, Ireland, a few miles east of the village of Ballyvaughan in the Barony of Burren. It was once known as "St. Mary of the Fertile Rock', a reference to the Burren's fertile soil.
The Romanesque ruins contain stone carvings which are considered to be the finest of any Cistercian church in Ireland.

The graveyard around the ruin is still in use. Visitors should respect this and behave appropriately.
