点评:Jedburgh Abbey is one of those places that stops you in your tracks. Rising up in the middle of the town, the remains of this 12th-century Augustinian abbey are breathtaking — towering stone arches, intricate carvings, and enough left standing to imagine the grandeur it once held.
We spent a peaceful hour or two exploring the ruins, wandering through the cloisters and along the grassy grounds where you can look straight through the open windows to the hills beyond. There’s a small museum too, with fascinating artefacts that tell the story of the abbey’s turbulent past and the cross-border conflicts that shaped it.
It’s right in the centre of Jedburgh, easy to reach on foot, and surrounded by lovely cafés and little shops (but there are some Abbey picnic spots of you fancy!). Even if you’ve seen other Border abbeys, Jedburgh feels special — calm, atmospheric, and beautifully preserved.

翻译:杰德堡修道院是那种让你驻足停留的地方。这座建于12世纪的奥古斯丁修道院矗立在镇中心,其遗迹令人叹为观止——高耸的石拱、精雕细琢的雕刻,以及足以让人想象它昔日辉煌的痕迹。
我们静静地待了一两个小时,探索着这片废墟,漫步于回廊之间,沿着草坪漫步,透过敞开的窗户,可以直视远处的群山。修道院里还有一座小型博物馆,馆内珍藏着引人入胜的文物,讲述着修道院动荡的过去以及塑造它的跨境冲突。
修道院位于杰德堡市中心,步行即可轻松抵达,周围遍布着迷人的咖啡馆和小商店(当然,也有一些修道院的野餐点,如果你喜欢的话!)。即使你看过其他边境地区的修道院,杰德堡也会让你感觉格外特别——宁静、宁静,而且保存完好。
