Within the Parish of Abergavenny clergy, officers and members seek to share a ministry of welcome and support. A large team of stewards, guides and supporters provide a service of welcome at services and within the church every day of the year. Visitors and tourists receive a warm welcome at all times.

Visiting the church

You can, of course, visit the church for any one of our services, which are held every day.

The church is open every day for visitors to view our fine monuments or sit in quiet contemplation. Opening times are Monday to Saturday 11am to 3pm and Sunday 2pm to 4pm.

There is no charge, although St Mary’s does cost £400 per day to run so any voluntary contribution would be very gratefully received.
