Lacock Abbey is a Grade I listed country house in the village of Lacock, Wiltshire, England, built over the cloisters of a former Augustinian nunnery founded in the early 13th century by Ela, Countess of Salisbury. Owned by the National Trust, it houses the Fox Talbot Museum and is the site where Henry Fox Talbot made what may be the earliest surviving photographic camera negative, in 1835.
