One of Leeds's most valuable monuments is the picturesque ruins of a medieval Cistercian Abbey situated on the outskirts of the city. This monastery was founded in 1152 and functioned until the first half of the 16th century, when the abbey was closed during the Reformation and since then abandoned, it began to fall into greater and greater ruin. Other important monuments worth seeing include gothic St. Peter (Leeds Minster), the former Royal Armory (now home to the National Museum), Tetley Brewery, Trinity Church, the monumental City Hall building, Victorian-style former Corn Exchange, and Leeds Industrial History Museum (Armley Mills Museum) , located about 3 km from the city center.
