Abbey of Notre-Dame d'Yerres, Medieval abbey in Yerres, France
The Notre-Dame d'Yerres Abbey features a 16th-century dormitory building and an 18th-century pharmacy section near the confluence of two rivers.
Founded in 1132 through a land donation by Eustachie de Corbeil, the abbey provided shelter for religious women from different monasteries in the region.
The abbey maintained a community of Benedictine nuns who followed strict dietary rules and received support through donations from private individuals.
Located at 6 Rue du Clos des Abbesses in Yerres, the abbey grounds contain multiple protected structures under French heritage preservation laws.
The dormitory section displays an original oak framework from the 16th century, alongside a refectory door from the same period.
