The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Une maison de refuge dépendant de l'abbaye des Prémontrés de Corneux aurait été installée à Gray dans la deuxième moitié du 14e siècle. Les bâtiments actuels ont été construits au 16e siècle, sous l'abbatiat de Dom Perchet dont les armoiries figurent toujours sur la façade principale, ainsi que les millésimes 1563 et 1569. Transformations entre 1756 et 1773, puis au 20e siècle. De l'édifice du 16e siècle subsistent le porche voûté en berceau, la chapelle voûtée sur croisées d'ogives, et la grande salle voûtée utilisée comme écurie au 18e siècle.

A refuge house dependent on the abbey of the Premonstratensians of Corneux would have been installed at Gray in the second half of the 14th century. The present buildings were constructed in the 16th century, under the abbacy of Dom Perchet whose arms still appear on the main façade, as well as the dates 1563 and 1569. Transformations between 1756 and 1773, then in the 20th century. From the 16th century building remain the porch vaulted in barrel vault, the chapel vaulted on rib vaults, and the large hall vaulted used as a stable in the 18th century.
