<dc:title>St Monans Parish Church / Dominican Friary</dc:title>
<dc:description>St Monans Parish Church has a lengthy history of Christian worship. The site may have been a place of pilgrimage long before the construction of the current church during the High Middle Ages. In the 1360s King David II had a fragment of an arrow miraculously removed whilst on pilgrimage to St Monans. In gratitude for his healing, David extensively endowed the church. In the late fifteenth century a community of Dominican friars was established at St Monans Church. However, in the early sixteenth century the St Monans friary was suppressed and its property transferred to the Dominican convent in St Andrews. The church at St Monans survived the Reformation and in 1649 became a parish church. The building underwent major renovation in the nineteenth century. Following the pandemic of 2020 the congregation of St Monans Parish Church has mainly worshipped in their church hall and, as of 2024, the future of the medieval building is uncertain.</dc:description>
