Commanderie de Xugney, Templar Commandery in Rugney, France.

The Commanderie de Xugney contains medieval stone walls joined with limestone mortar, featuring architectural elements from the original 12th-century construction period.

After the Knights Templar dissolution in 1314, the Hospitallers acquired control of the commandery and maintained its operations through subsequent centuries.

The archaeological excavations in 2010 revealed interior nave elevations, masonry analysis, and four distinct types of mortar representing different construction periods.

The commandery stands at 16 Chemin de Xugney in Rugney, with the church section protected under official heritage designation since March 1926.

Dendrochronological analysis of an oak beam found at the site indicates it was cut after 1157, establishing a precise timeline for the initial construction.
