Solignac Abbey, or the Abbey of Saint-Peter and Saint Paul of Solignac, is an abbey in Solignac, near Limoges, in Haute-Vienne.

It was founded around 631 AD by Saint Eligius.

The present buildings date to the 12th century, but have been modified many times since then.

The abbey was dissolved during the French Revolution and the buildings were put to new uses, including a prison, boarding school, porcelain factory and seminary.
