About Abbaye Saint-Vincent de Nieul-sur-l'Autise

Religion, Monasteries, Interesting Places

L'abbaye Saint-Vincent de Nieul-sur-l'Autise a été fondée en 1068 par Ayraud Gadessenier, seigneur de Vouvant. Elle accueillit initialement une communauté de chanoines réguliers de saint Augustin appartenant à la congrégations des génovéfains. Ils sont chargés d'assainir le marais poitevin.

Déclarée abbaye royale en 1141 par le roi Louis VII, époux d'Aliénor d'Aquitaine depuis 1137, l'ensemble fut largement ruiné par les guerres de religion. On doit en partie sa sauvegarde et sa restauration à Prosper Mérimée, impressionné par ce qui restait de l'ensemble «roman poitevin».
