Primaudière Priory is an ancient priory dating from the 13th and 18th centuries, located in the French communes of Armaillé in Maine-et-Loire and Juigné-des-Moutiers in Loire-Atlantique (Pays de la Loire region). It was founded by monks of the Grandmont order in 1207, with the help and support of local lords. It was abandoned by the last monks in 1762. The main building is the Primaudière Chapel, built in the 13th century and a place of pilgrimage in the Middle Ages. The organization of the priory is typical of Grandmont architecture, particularly in terms of the openings in the chapel and its two doors, one for the faithful and the second for the monks serving it.
