Framed by trees the ruins of St. Mary's Abbey are in the Museum Gardens. The gardens were set up by the Yorkshire Philosophical Society as a botanical garden shortly after they were formed in 1822 and the Museum was built in 1829. The museum is known as the Yorkshire Museum and is administered by York Museums Trust which is an independent charitable trust which manages York Castle Museum, Yorkshire Museum and Gardens, York Art Gallery and York St Mary's.
