    It was in 1088 that the charter of its foundation by Roger de Beaumont was placed. At first it was a Collegiate Church whose service was entrusted to the English canons of St. Frideswide. In 1142, monks replaced them, not without difficulties. In 1147, a General Assembly, chaired in Paris by Pope Eugene III, leads to a compromise. Around 1150, the Priory of Beaumont le Roger was occupied by 12 monks. The Priory saw many donations, rents, the income from its land (Passing through Beaumont le Roger, Louis IX leased vines to the religious). There were only 4 of these in 1580. In 1634, there was only one prior and two canons. On the eve of the Revolution, only 2 canons occupied the cloister buildings. The premises were devastated during the tormented times of the Revolution of 1789.

    In 1820, the textile industry took over what remained of the buildings: a cotton mill, a ribbon factory and a cloth factory. A fire destroyed the facilities in 1855.
    The remains were purchased and the new owner sold the materials.
    Fortunately, a member of the Institute bought what was left of the ruins to save them.
    Since 1916, the Priory has been classified as a Historic Monument.

      In 1855 a fire destroyed the facilities.
      In 1862, Mr. Lenormand prevented the priory's complete demolition by buying it back on behalf of the Société des Antiquaires de Normandie. However, a few years later part of the retaining walls were demolished to widen the road to Brionne. It is now property of the state.

        This former monastery church, the ruins of which still bear impressive witness to the former size and splendor of the abbey, was not dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as saints, but rather the ONE God in THREE persons - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God's Holy Spirit - was chosen as its patron saint. Father Reinhard Körner writes about the mystery of the Holy Trinity:
        "Among the great prayer-givers in the history of Christianity... I found prayer texts in which each of the divine three was explicitly addressed - in the same prayer. When I tried to recite the texts, I could sense that these people had not only had God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in mind individually - they were addressing a divine community. And it seemed to me that they could only do this in their written prayers because they did it otherwise, quietly in their hearts."
