The Historic Abbey is an event venue housed inside a meticulously restored Victorian church at 100 Rock Street in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Restored in 2015 and reimagined as a dedicated event destination, the space preserves its original stained glass windows, exposed brick, soaring ceilings, and exquisite chandeliers. The venue welcomes a wide range of private occasions — weddings, bridal and baby showers, rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, and corporate events — all within a setting defined by its exceptional architectural character and rich New England history.
