The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Ancien prieuré clunisien descendant de Moissac, remontant à 1067, dû au comte de Toulouse Guillaume IV. Au 11e et 12e siècle, l'édifice sert de lieu de réunion aux notables de la ville. En 1628, le pape échange avec Moissac le prieuré de Villardonnel contre celui de Saint-Pierre afin d'en faire don aux Chartreux qui s'intallent à côté. L'édifice conserve d'importants vestiges des 11e et 12e siècles (portail roman, pan de mur avec deux fenêtres romanes dans la façade ouest, murs de la chapelle absidiale et vestiges dans l'abside semi-circulaire) , et a été complété aux 14e et 16e siècles. Il se compose d'un choeur à chevet plat et d'une nef de caractère très méridional.

Former Cluniac priory descended from Moissac, dating back to 1067, due to the count of Toulouse Guillaume IV. In the 11th and 12th centuries, the building serves as a meeting place for the notables of the town. In 1628, the pope exchanges with Moissac the priory of Villardonnel for that of Saint-Pierre in order to give it to the Carthusians who settle next door. The building preserves important vestiges of the 11th and 12th centuries (Romanesque portal, wall panel with two Romanesque windows in the west facade, walls of the apsidal chapel and vestiges in the semicircular apse), and was completed in the 14th and 16th centuries. It consists of a choir with a flat chevet and a nave of very southern character.
