Abbaye Notre-Dame de Belchamp, Medieval abbey ruins in Voujeaucourt, France.

The stone walls along the Doubs River feature distinctive rectangular blocks and preserved openings from the nineteenth-century construction period.

Founded between 1142 and 1145 by Count Thierry II of Montbéliard, the abbey underwent multiple destructions until its final demolition after a fire in 1725.

The Premonstratensian order managed this religious establishment, which received protection and privileges from Pope Lucius III in 1181.

The archaeological remains near the highway construction site reveal information about the original abbey structures through careful documentation and study.

The riverside wall displays specific stone masonry patterns dating to the sixteenth century, different from other medieval constructions in the region.
