- Source: List of Augustinian monasteries in France
This is a list of Augustinian monasteries, extant and non-extant, in the present territory of France. It includes both canons and canonesses following the Rule of Saint Augustine, excluding the Premonstratensians, the Canons Regular of the Order of the Holy Cross (Crosiers), the Canons Regular of Saint Anthony (Hospital Brothers of Saint Anthony, or Antonines) and the Teutonic Order.
At different times these religious houses have formed various orders, congregations or groups, of which the main ones, as far as French monasteries are concerned, are the following::
Arrouaisian Order
Canons Regular of Mont Saint-Éloi
Canons Regular of Hérival
Congregation of Saint-Ruf (Rufinians)
Canons Regular of Saint-Quentin of Beauvais
Congregation of France (Génovéfains), centred on the Abbey of St Genevieve, Paris
Congregation of Chancelade
Congregation of Abondance
Congregation of Val-des-Écoliers
Congregation of Pébrac
group of La Roë
group of Bourg-Achard
group of Marbach
Canons Regular of Our Saviour
Congregation of Saint-Victor (Victorines)
Canons Regular of the Immaculate Conception
Congregation of Windesheim
Canons Regular of Mary Mother of the Redeemer
Canons Regular of the Mother of God
The present congregations are united in the Confederation of Canons Regular of St Augustine, established in 1959.
All religious houses in France were suppressed during the French Revolution, mostly in 1790–91. Some communities were revived, and many more new ones established, during the 19th century, but were forced to leave France by anti-clerical legislation during the 1880s (principally the Ferry Laws), and again in the first decades of the 20th century under the Association Act, 1901 (the Waldeck-Rousseau Law).
Dependent priories are not generally noted in this list, except for a few unusually significant ones.
