Povijest Opatije Sauve-major datira iz 1079.godine, kada je benediktinski redovnik, koji je kasnije postao Sveti Gerard de Corbie, osnovao katedralu Notre Dame u prostranoj šumi smještenoj između regija Garonne i Dordogne na području poznatom kao Merce Center. Značaj Opatije porastao je zahvaljujući podršci koju je dobila od vojvoda Akvitanije, kao i zbog blizine hodočašća Sv. Njegova reputacija dosegla je vrhunac tijekom stoljeća u prosincu, kada je vodio 70 samostana razasutih od Engleske do Aragona.
Stogodišnji rat Opatiji je donio teška vremena. 1660.godine, unatoč tome što je samostan gotovo napušten, kongregacija Svetog mora, mauristi, vratila je Opatiji samostanski život. Nakon revolucije Opatija se koristi kao izvor kamena, a velika crkva leži u ruševinama. 1840. ansambl je proglašen povijesnim spomenikom, a država ga je kupila 1960. Opatija je 1998.godine uvrštena na UNESCO - ov popis zaštićenih mjesta baštine-duž hodočasničke rute Saint-Jacc-de-Compostel.
