The priory, established in 974-975 at Sault, on a rocky spur overlooking the Portefeuille valley, depended on the abbey of Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire.

The monastic establishment was designated from its origins until the Revolution, by the term provost. The provost, the titular representative of the monastery, subordinate to the abbot of Fleury, also governed the ecclesiastical seigneury having right of high justice over the town.

This particular situation, which continued until the end of the seventeenth century, is reflected in the topography of the monastic buildings located
