St Monans

The Auld Kirk of St Monans Makes the Most Distinctive Landmark

St Monans is probably the nicest of the East Neuk villages. Compared to Elie or Lower Largo, it is a much bigger place as a direct result of the prosperity it gained in the 1800. At the same time, it is the finest example of Fife's fishing villages architecture: a variety of colours, outside staircases, red-tiled roofs, all blended in beautifully.
