History
Originally a community of sisters dependent on the Premonstratensian abbey of Salival, it was a priory of brothers by the 1420s. Its history is poorly documented. <br /><br />In 1502, Belletanche was ceded to the Celestines of Metz. A community of Vincentian sisters now occupies the site.

History
Founded in 1133 by Albéron de Chiny, bishop of Verdun, Belval joined the Premonstratensian Order ca. 1137 as a daughter house of Prémontré. It was initially a double house. It became a commendatory abbey in 1533, and was burned or looted several times over the course of the 16th and early 17th centuries. <br /><br />Belval adopted the reform of the Antique Rigueur in 1622, and was suppressed at the Revolution.

History
The knight Albert Flohenges gave land at Blanzey to the Premonstratensians of Sainte-Marie-au-Bois by 1162. The abbess of Bouxières gave her rights over the church there to the Premonstratensian Order in the 1160s. For much of the Middle Ages, Blanzey was a priory dependent on Sainte-Marie-au-Bois but by the early 18th century was a parish church with one Premonstratensian living there as curate. <br /><br />The Premonstratensian community was suppressed at the Revolution. For a time the priory church served as a chandler's workshop. It was reconsecrated ca. 1840 and is today a parish church. The church and its crypt, which still survive, dates to the late 12th-15th century.

History
Bonfays was founded by Guillaume, lord of Archies, and his sister-in-law, Valence, in 1145. It was never a large or prosperous house. Bonfays was a commendatory abbey 1539-1589 and again 1749-1790. The community was dissolved in 1790 and the property was sold. <br /><br />Bonfays' church was destroyed during the Hundred Years' War; a second church was built in the latter part of the 15th century. No remains are visible today, and the former site of the abbey is occupied by a disused nightclub.

History
Bonlieu may have been home to sisters associated with the abbey of Septfontaines-en-Bassigny. In 1177, one Lambert de Gronay gave land at Bonlieu to Septfontaines on his daughters' entry to the religious life. It is not otherwise clear if it was home to Premonstratensian sisters. <br /><br />It later became a grange. There was a chapel on the site, rebuilt in the 1690s, which was destroyed in the aftermath of the Revolution.<br /><br />(<em>Not to be confused with Sainte-Anne de Bonlieu-sur-Roubion, which was a Cistercian house during the Middle Ages and was only home to a Premonstratensian community, 1871-2014.)</em>

A priory dependent on the Premonstratensian abbey of Mureau, this was never a large community. Its exact foundation date is unknown, but the earliest documentary reference to it is from 1217. In 1401 it was home to only one brother. <br /><br />In the 17th century, Bonneval was transferred to the recently established Premonstratensian <em>hospice</em> of Saint-Joseph at Nancy. It remained a possession of the order until the Revolution. Today the property is in private hands.

History
Founded by 1137, Crécy housed sisters affiliated with the abbey of Belval. The community was still in existence in 1280, when it was home to ten sisters. In the 14th century it became a simple priory, and in 1697 was given to the seminary of Reims.

History
Étival was likely founded in the mid-7th century as a community of canons. From 1145, it was a Premonstratensian house. It was likely a double house at its origin, and later was a house of just men. The abbot of Étival was a vassal of the powerful abbess of Andlau.<br /><br />Étival became a commendatory abbey in the 1770s. The abbey's tower was destroyed in 1944.

History
Flabémont was founded in the late 1130s by Guy d'Aigremont, with the consent of Hugues I, lord of Vaudémont. The first brothers came from Belval. It became a commendatory abbey in the early 16th century, and was sacked during the Thirty Years' War. The abbey was suppressed in 1790. Part of the former abbatial complex survives today, in private hands.

History
In ca. 1130, Wéry II and Adélaïde, lord and lady of Walcourt, founded a monastery at Freistroff, which was home to Cistercian nuns by 1147. <br /><br />Around the turn of the 13th century, Freistroff appears to have been briefly occupied by a group of Premonstratensian men from Metz and Justemont, on the initiative of Bertram, bishop of Metz. This period of the abbey's history is obscure.<br /><br />From 1208, Freistroff was once more a Cistercian community. The abbey was suppressed at the Revolution and the remains of the monastic complex were destroyed during World War Two.

History
The Benedictine abbey of Saint-Hubert gave the land at Hamewiller to the Premonstratensian abbey of Justemont in 1153. It became a community of Premonstratensian sisters. They are attested there for the last time in 1224. <br /><br />By the late Middle Ages, it was a parish church dependent on Prémontré. In 1582, "a small cloister" still existed on the site. By the 18th century, both cloister and church were in ruins.
