Abbey of Notre-Dame de Prébenoît

Due to the loss of its early records, little detailed information about its history has survived. The monastery enjoyed the protection of the lords of Malval, traditionally considered its founders, and later established connections with other noble families in the region, notably the Brosse. Dalon Abbey, together with its affiliated monasteries, gradually moved closer to the Cistercian Order, and in 1162, the entire congregation formally joined the Cistercians, becoming part of the Pontigny filiation.

After some degree of normalization, and despite its precarious state, a few new buildings were erected. At the time of the Revolution, when the abbey was suppressed, it housed only one monk. The site later passed into private hands before being acquired by public authorities in the late twentieth century. Today, some conventual buildings from the seventeenth-century reconstruction survive, along with a few heavily damaged remains from the medieval period.
