Dover Priory, Medieval priory ruins in Dover, England

The stone remains of Dover Priory include segments of walls and architectural details from its original monastic structures near the town center.

Founded on January 17, 1101, Dover Priory served as a religious institution for centuries until its designation as a scheduled monument in England.

The priory's refectory design demonstrates the architectural principles of medieval monastic buildings through its structural layout and stone craftsmanship.

Visitors can reach the priory site via Dover Priory railway station, which connects the location to London and other major destinations.

The interior refectory section contains specific architectural elements that represent early 12th-century Norman ecclesiastical construction methods.
