Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Portion of Cassini map showing the Montieramey abbey, Aube departement, Burgundy, France. The abbey is in the lower part of the picture, north-east of Montreuil (Montreuil-sur-Barse). It is spelled "Monƒtier-Amey", an uncommon spelling, followed by the initials "AB. H.O.S.B., standing for "Abbaye d'Hommes Ordre Saint Bernard" (Men Abbey Order of Saint Bernard).

The abbey is located on the river Barse, which flows north towards the Larrivour abbey (near the upper edge of the picture). The latter is "AB. H. O. C.", a men abbey of the cistercian order. The valley is woody all along, joining with the larger forêt d'Orient north-east.

The road from Troyes (hardly 20 km north-east) to Bar-sur-Aube (32 km east) passes 1 km north of Montieramey. The village of La Villeneuve Egrigny on the right edge of the picture is now called La Villeneuve-au-Chêne.

La route de Troyes ( (à peine 20 km au nord-est) à Bar-sur-Aube (32 km à l'est) passe à 1 km au nord de Montieramey. Le village de La Villeneuve Egrigny sur le bord droit de l'image s'appelle de nos jours La Villeneuve-au-Chêne.
