An abbey (from Latin abbatia, from Latin abbās, derived from Aramaic abba, "father") is a Catholic or Anglican monastery or convent. Abbeys typically fall under the authority of an Abbot or an Abbess, who serve as the spiritual father or mother of the community.The term can also refer to a former abbey, even if the establishment is no longer functioning as an abbey (for example, Westminster Abbey).
