투르네삭 신부가 세운 계획에 따라 지어졌으며 1857년 6월에 축성되었습니다. 이 예배당은 르망 시에서 가장 오래된 지역 중 하나인 생트 크루아 지구에 있습니다. 현재 건물은 첫 번째 예배당을 대체한 것입니다. 이 첫 번째 예배당은 아마도 6세기에 성 베르트랑이 설립한 병원의 예배당이었을 것입니다. 10세기경 병원이 폐허가 된 후 교구로 설립되었을 가능성이 높습니다. 당시 이 예배당은 라 쿠튀르 수도원에 속해 있었습니다. 초기 예배당은 1794년에 파괴되었습니다. 1835년에 조제프 형제회를 맡게 된 바질 모로 덕분에 재건되었습니다. 모로 신부는 교구에서 기증한 땅에 이 신생 공동체인 생트 크루아 신부들을 수용하기 위한 여러 건물을 지을 임무를 맡았습니다. 1908년에 교회는 폐쇄되었고 수도원의 모든 건물이 군대에 할당되었습니다. 1931년에 캐나다에서 크게 성장한 수도회에 의해 인수된 후 예배에 다시 사용되었습니다. 바질 모로는 1873년에 사망했으며 2007년에 교회에 의해 시복되었습니다. 그의 사망 150주년을 기념하여 2024년 4월 7일 일요일 미사가 France 2의 "Le Jour du Seigneur"에서 생중계되었습니다.

Founded in 1229 by Bérengère de Navarre, widow of Richard the Lionheart, it constitutes one of the most beautiful Cistercian jewels in France. It was acquired by the Department of Sarthe in 1959. The Royal Abbey of Épau constitutes one of the finest examples of Cistercian architecture in France. In 1229, Bérengère de Navarre, widow of Richard the Lionheart, decided to found this abbey at the gates of Le Mans, where she was buried a year later. During the Revolution, the abbey, almost deserted by monks since the 18th century, was sold as national property to an industrialist. Then transformed into an agricultural operation, the abbey experienced many vicissitudes before its purchase by the Department of Sarthe in 1959. A vast restoration program, still in progress, is giving it a second wind, making the abbey one of the most important places cultural heritage of Sarthe. The abbey also hosts the sessions of the departmental assembly of which it has been the seat since the 1970s. Since July 1, 2016, its management has been entrusted to the Sarthe Cultural Center whose mission is to offer it a new dimension, in order to strengthen its cultural role in the region. Recently, the research of Father Michel Niaussat, a Cistercian monk writer, has shed light on the royal character of the building. L'Épau Abbey then became Royal Abbey of l'Épau in March 2017. Alongside this cultural and tourist growth, another flagship project which will guide the development of the abbey in the coming years: the transformation of the park into permacultural garden. It must then be remembered that times of prayer and work were equivalent in the Cistercian rule. This agricultural dimension is at the heart of the departmental project, the ultimate objective of which is to restore as faithfully as possible the original principles of the place. The abbey, which has preserved almost all of its buildings, is located at the gates of Le Mans. It is inserted in a 13 ha enclosed park delimited by a surrounding wall.
