Located on the Roman road connecting Lyon to Vienne, the sanctuary of Limon was a place of gathering from the earliest times of Christianity in Gaul.
In the 5th century, monks founded a monastery there. Destroyed in the 8th century at the time of the Saracen invasion, it was rebuilt at the beginning of the 11th century and entrusted to the Brothers of Limon until 1198.
