| abstract | - Redwall Abbey was built following the destruction and flooding of Kotir, an ancient castle in Mossflower Woods ruled by Tsarmina Greeneyes. The survivors of the Loamhedge Abbey plague came to Mossflower country, led by Abbess Germaine to start anew. She designed the blueprints. Along with the woodlanders of Mossflower and other Loamhedge survivors, the Abbey was built out of red sandstone from a neighboring quarry, with the intentions for the building to be a place of peace for all. A tapestry was woven in the Great Hall dedicated to Martin the Warrior. After his death, he was entombed beneath the Abbey. While it is ordained to be a peaceful location, many times a warrior is called upon from the residents to combat a threat against this peace. The residents of Redwall name the Seasons every year after some large occurrence. Young citizens of the Abbey are called Dibbuns.

The inhabitants of the Abbey are mostly anthro mice, with a number of voles, moles, hedgehogs, otters, etc. Often a Badger Mother resides in the Abbey. The few Vermin - rats, foxes, weasels, ferrets, stoats, etc - who have come into the building generally came to sticky ends, as the relations between them and the Abbeydwellers are difficult to say the least, but one or two have had happy endings (such as Blaggut). The Abbey is famous for the lavish parties and feasts held on a regular basis throughout the books, and the high quality of the food. Because of this, "causing Redwallers to eat Generic Food" has been counted by some agents as a charge.
