1079년, 베네딕토회 수도원장 Gérard de Corbie와 약 10명의 수도승 및 기사들이 Entre-deux-Mers의 큰 숲(라틴어로 Silva Major)에 Notre-Dame de La Sauve-Majeure를 설립했습니다. 아키텐 공작들의 지원과 산티아고 데 콤포스텔라 순례길은 빠른 발전을 촉진했습니다. 12세기와 13세기에 절정을 이루었을 때, 수도원에는 약 100명의 수도승이 있었습니다. 백년 전쟁은 그 쇠퇴를 가속화했습니다.

Sauveterre-de-Guyenne is a bastide. A bastide is a type of French medieval town, founded in the 13th and 14th centuries, primarily in southwestern France. A bastide is characterized by a rectangular street pattern that divides the town into eight blocks around a central market square. The Treaty of Paris (1229) prohibited the building of walls around new towns. Many bastides were provided with some form of fortification, such as gates, after their founding to provide some protection during turbulent times. Most bastides had only local significance and did not develop into large towns. As a result, many bastides, such as that of Sauveterre-de-Guyenne, have been preserved in their original state.
