圣玛丽教堂，康威
这座建筑原本是艾伯康威修道院的教堂。修道院的僧侣在1186年来到这里。历史学家认为住在这里的僧人在12世纪下半叶编写了《伊利福·阿尼瑞》（《阿尼瑞之书》）。这是现存最古老的威尔士文书籍之一。
英格兰国王爱德华一世夺取土地来建造康威城堡和康威镇，逼迫僧侣离开。约1283年，康威修道院变成圣玛利亚大教堂。之后不久，教堂塔建成，其他部分被改建。
一些重要的人物埋在教堂里。其中包括罗埃林大王，他是威尔士第一任王子，去世于1240年。这里还有罗伯特·永利（1520年至1598年）的坟墓，他建造了一座名为普拉斯茅尔的大房子，现在为康威博物馆。

现在这个教堂属于英国国教信仰。附近有罗马天主教教堂，这是基督教的另一个分支。
