The church is the only witness of a former Clunisian priory founded before 1061\. In 1031 a church was established by guy 1er de Montlhéry and his wife Hodierne de Gometz on the site of a Marian chapel, probably built as early as the 3rd century on a place of Druidic worship. In 1061 it was given to Cluny with the consent of Geoffrey de Boulogne, bishop of Paris, and monks of this order settled there. The construction of the present church was undertaken at the beginning of the 12th century by guy II Troussel. It ended at the beginning of the 13th century with the facade. The basement of the square tower dates from the 12th century and its only floor from the 13th century. The church was elevated to the rank of basilica in 1913\.
