The monastery was founded in 1626 after the decree of Ferdinand de Bavière, Prince-Bishop of Liège.
The main goal was the education of the youth . It would not really come to life until 1633. Their first boarders, who would later become their main benefactors, were the three sisters Isabelle, Catherine and Claude d'Oyembrugghe from Duras. They provided significant financial support and donated numerous properties to the monastery. This gave it an important financial value within the Duchy .
In 1794, after the dispersal of the sisters imposed by the French Revolution, the building was sold as a national asset and then gradually transformed into housing and included a technical school for the training of workers for the Devillez-Camion metallurgical factories. The original monastery building and the factory were close to each other.
The monastery building has been classified since 1991. In 1998 it housed the “Archaeoscope Godfrey of Bouillon” .
