This church has existed since at least the 9th century, but it got its current appearance in the 12th century, when Benedictines set up a priory there. The nuns left Avesnières during the Hundred Years War and the church then became a simple parish church again. It was elevated to the rank of minor basilica in 1898 by Pope Leo XIII.

On the Old Bridge of Laval, one is captivated by the medieval castle which sits over the city, in particular by this "Tour-Maîtresse", a jewel of medieval architecture. Anecdote at the origin of this bridge: Guy I of Laval, Lord of Laval in 1020 spanned the Mayenne at the foot of his castle. But he fell with his mount and, seeing himself lost, commended himself to the Most Blessed Virgin Mary. Brought back mysteriously to the shore, he was making a prayer of gratitude when, in the branches of an oak tree, the Blessed Virgin appeared to him. He built a chapel, called Notre-Dame d'Avesnières, and a monastery of nuns where his daughters entered. Pilgrims flocked there and the chapel, enlarged several times, gave way to a basilica completed by Count Guy V de Laval, great-grandson of the founder.
