Opgrimbie

Description

Abbediet Notre Dame du Vivier blev opkaldt efter en træfigur af Maria og det lille Jesusbarn, som ifølge legenden blev fisket op fra en sø. Dette sted blev kaldt Marche les Dames og henviste til kvinderne fra Namur og omegn, der søgte tilflugt der, da deres ægtemænd, fædre og sønner var taget på korstog til Jerusalem med Godfrid af Bouillon.

Abbediet skulle være grundlagt mellem år 1000 og 1100. Bernard af Clairvaux skulle fra dette abbedi have prædiket det andet korstog.

Indtil den franske revolution var cistercienserne aktive her. Efter den franske periode kom der andre forskellige klosterordener. Således også til den kontemplative søsterorden af Notre Dame de Bethléem, bedre kendt som søstrene, der på grund af kong Baudouins indflydelse flyttede til det kongelige domæne i Opgrimbie. I øjeblikket huser det restaurerede abbedi ordenen af det canadiske Madonna House.
Abbedekirken bruges stadig som sognekirke.
