Scope and Content Tower of Culross Abbey Church, Culross, Fife Culross Abbey Church was part of the Cistercian Abbey founded in 1217 by Malcolm, Earl of Fife. It was converted into a parish church in 1663, the rest of the abbey having lain derelict since the end of the 16th century. The tower, added in 1498-1513 by Abbot Masoun, stands on a level of strengthened late 13th-century masonry. The battlements are modern. To the right, behind the trees, a single wall is all that remains of original nave, built in 1217. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
