Abbots


For the first part of this list, dates may indicate attestations and not dates of reign.

For the remainder of the list dates are regnal dates.




Grand priors


In 1691, Louis XIV suppressed the title of abbot and subsequent superiors bear the title of grand prior. Its revenues were given to the Maison royale de Saint-Louis.

In 1792, the abbey was secularized amidst the French Revolution. In October 1793, the tombs of the abbey were desecrated. On 25 March 1809, the buildings were given to the Maison d'éducation de la Légion d'honneur.
