Sablonceaux Abbey is a former Augustinian monastery located in Sablonceaux in the Charente-Maritime department of south-western France. It is now occupied by members of the Chemin Neuf Community.
The abbey was established in 1136 by William X, Duke of Aquitaine, who initially supported antipope Anacletus II against Pope Innocent II during the papal schism of 1130, but changed his mind after the intervention of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, and tried to demonstrate his good faith by offering to the Church two valuable monastic foundations, Fontenay-le-Comte Abbey in Vendée, and Sablonceaux Abbey.
