Summary

[edit]
Description

Vaux-de-Cernay Abbey was a Cistercian monastery in northern France (Ile-de-France), situated in the w:Diocese of Versailles, Seine-et-Oise.

In 1118 Simon de Neauffle and his wife Eve donated the land for this foundation to the monks of Savigny Abbey, in order to have a monastery built there in honour of the Mother of God and St. John Baptist. Vital, Abbot of Savigny accepted their offer, and sent a band of monks under the direction of Arnaud, who became their first abbot. Besides their first benefactors, others of the nobility came to the aid of the new community.
