Origin and history
The Priory Notre-Dame, located in Maule in the Yvelines, is a monument whose origins date back to the thirteenth century, with major modifications in the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. This religious site, partially preserved, bears witness to medieval monastic architecture and the Renaissance. The underground room, the only protected vestige, was inscribed in the Historic Monuments by order of 17 October 1988, highlighting its heritage interest.
The building now belongs to the municipality of Maule and is associated with the Victor Aubert Museum, although its current use (visits, rental, accommodation) is not specified in the available sources. Its location, at 17 Rue Quincampoix, is approximate, with a cartographic accuracy considered fair (note 5/10). This priory illustrates the role of religious institutions in the social and spiritual organization of Ile-de-France in the late Middle Ages and early modern times.
Historical data is missing to detail its operation or occupants, but its listing as Historic Monuments guarantees the protection of its most remarkable elements. The base Mérimé the reference under the code Insee 78380, confirming its anchoring in the department of Yvelines and the region Île-de-France. No information is available on any sponsors or characters related to its foundation or transformations.
