Tristernagh Abbey, also known as the Priory of Kilbixy, is a ruined Augustinian priory, situated on the shores of Lough Iron about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north east of Ballynacargy in County Westmeath, Ireland. The abbey was founded in 1192 by Geoffrey de Constantine and was dedicated to Mary. It was ransacked by the commissioners of King Henry VIII in 1536 and closed it down. The abbey was destroyed in 1783.
