History
- ca. 650: Foundeation of the monastery. Rebuilt and enlarged ca. 910. Restored in the 17th century. It was occupied by Benedictines during this time.
- 1835: The monks are expelled.
- 1891: Foundation by Désert. The monastery was in ruins.
- 1897: Raised to the rank of priory. Dom Ange Ginabat, monk of Désert, is the first superior.
- 1900: Raised to the rank of abbey; election of Dom Ange. The hard work and patience of the new community resulted in the restoration of the monastery and God blessed their work with a great influx of vocations. This permitted the re-establishment of La Oliva by way of the aid given to the former community of SteSuzanne and Val St. Joseph, then the foundation of Cardeña
