The Senones monastery, an abbey in the Rabodeau valley in the present-day town of Senones in Lorraine, was founded in 661 by Saint Gondelbert, the former Archbishop of Sens. The documentary evidence is incomplete. The Benedictine monk Richer of Senones wrote the story up to 1263. However, his work is disputed.
Around two hundred monks are said to have lived in the abbey in the 9th century. The monastery became a fief of the bishops of Metz, and Angilram in particular tried to gain ties. The order's power lay with the diocese of Toul.
