Its name comes from the yellow colour reflected by the stonework in the setting sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is claimed that St. Patrick founded Ireland&#8217;s first great church at Trim. The church was destroyed a number of times by attacking forces and it has long been believed that St. Mary&#8217;s Abbey was founded on the site of the church ruins. In fact the church of the new abbey continued to serve as the parish church. St. Malachy introduced Augustinian rule to the Abbey between 1140 and 1148.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The church was destroyed again in 1368, however shortly after the fire, the abbey erected a statue of the Virgin Mary. The statue known as \u2018Our Lady of Trymme&#8217; became famous for its curative powers and healing miracles. Trim became a major pilgrimage destination for Irish Rebels and English soldiers alike. Indeed, such was the statue&#8217;s fame in the fifteenth century that some have referred to Trim as \u201cthe Lourdes of Ireland\u201d at that time. Unfortunately the statue met its end during the Reformation with the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII. The statue was destroyed in public. Although local legend suggests that the statue survived a lot longer than Henry VIII would have liked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The abbey itself was destroyed by Oliver Cromwell. It is believed that the Yellow Steeple was actually used as a garrison against Cromwell&#8217;s troops until the tower was destroyed. The Yellow Steeple is generally considered the only remains of the Abbey but there is some evidence that indicates the nearby manor house, Talbot&#8217;s Castle, may have been the abbey&#8217;s refectory before being converted into a private residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><div id=\"metaslider-id-333\" style=\"width: 100%;\" class=\"ml-slider-3-62-0 metaslider metaslider-flex metaslider-333 ml-slider ms-theme-default nav-hidden\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"Slideshow\" aria-label=\"THIS IS ALL THAT REMAINS OF ST MARYS ABBEY IN TRIM COUNTY MEATH\">\n    <div id=\"metaslider_container_333\">\n        <div id=\"metaslider_333\">\n            <ul aria-live=\"polite\" class=\"slides\">\n                <li style=\"display: block;
