In 1662 a final revival of the monastery began with the arrival of 12 monks of the Congregation of Saint-Maur.

The Congregation of St Maur had been granted letters patent by Louis XIII of France in 1618 to manage the reformed monasteries of France.

It contained more than 180 monasteries by the end of the 17th century.

The congregation enforced a return to the strict Rule of Saint Benedict.

It is best known for its scholarship, including historical research, biblical studies, chronology and liturgy.

The abbey was probably partially rebuilt in the 17th century.

In 1731 the abbey and its revenues were transferred to the newly created Bishopric of Dijon.

It was now administered by a simple "prior" rather than an abbot, and depended on the bishop for funding.

The Congrégation de Saint-Maur planned a reconstruction program for the abbey, with plans that provided more southern light and air to the monks' cells.

The buildings and Saint Peter and Paul church were destroyed and rebuilt from 1738, using materials from the old building.

The initial plans were changed in 1769 under the direction of the architect Charles Saint-Père, who conceived a large building south of the church.

It had a central section holding the refectory and the dormitory, with two wings.

Of the 113 metres (371 ft) long "monastic palace",  the wings have survived but the main building, which held the cells of the monks on the first floor, has been destroyed.

The buildings included an infirmary, guest rooms for distinguished visitors, a library that had 4,175 volumes according to the May 1790 inventory and apartments for the Cellerier and Sous-Cellerier, who looked after the material life of the abbey.

The west wing held a large library on the second floor.

A cloister gallery runs along the central north side.

There is a storehouse arranged symmetrically with the west wing.

The church was roughly the same as the former church, but somewhat shortened and no longer extending to the river.
