The Abbey of Dulce Cor, better known as Sweetheart Abbey , was a Cistercian monastery founded in 1275 in what is now the village of New Abbey, in the historical county of Kirkcudbrightshire in Dumfries and Galloway, 8 miles south of Dumfries.
The abbey, located on the banks of the New Abbey Pow , was founded by Dervorguilla of Galloway, daughter of Alan, Lord of Galloway, in memory of her husband, John de Balliol. After his death, she kept his embalmed heart, contained in a casket of ivory and silver, with her for the rest of her life, and it was buried alongside her when she died. In line with this devotion to her late husband, she named the abbey Dulce Cor . Their son, also John, became King of Scotland, but his reign was tragic and short.
