The priory was founded in 1324 by the brothers Olivier and Geoffroy de Montfort. The recessed tombs containing their burial places are found in the ruins of the chapel of this priory. These tombs are placed under trilobed arches. On the statues, the heads are adorned with a baron's torsade, the hair rolled and resting on a cushion. They are clad in their armour, swords at their sides, gauntlets. The arms hold heraldic shields. Four small angels are kneeling at the angles.
