History
The priory of Saint-Julien was founded at Mantes in memory of Philip II Augustus, who died there in 1222. It was a dependent house on the Premonstratensian abbey of Isle-Dieu.
Owing to its riverside location, the priory was often flooded and the community was therefore dissolved in 1644. Nothing remains of the site today.
