Abbeyleix Tourism Guide

This town was designed by the first Viscount of Vesci in the 18th century although there has been a settlement at Abbeyleix since 1183 encircling a Cistercian monastery. Today the memory of the monastery lives on in the town\'s name. The private residence of Abbeyleix House is still the home of the de Vesci family.
