At this period, the " new town of Bourgneuf" was a parish that had to be Christianized. In the city between the 12th and 15th centuries a convent of Franciscan monks or Cordeliers (located at the level of the current Museum), a Church, and several chapels. The faithful being more and more numerous, the old church will be demolished then rebuilt and the cemetery moved. Today, the presbytery still exists with a few surrounding walls. It no longer belongs to the diocese, it is private property, and it today welcomes guests rentals.
