In 948, Saint-Saturnin (the former name of Pont-Saint-Esprit) became the seventh «daughter» of the abbey of Cluny. The choir was rebuilt in the fourteenth century and the nave in the eighteenth before being looted, like the whole monastery, during the Revolution. Today, the priory is a cultural place classified as a Historic Monument in 1988. The Protestant temple is located on the site of the old sacristy.
