It is known that the Plantagenets were great benefactors of the mother abbey at Fontevraud in its early years and Henry's widow, Eleanor of Aquitaine, took up residence there. More generally, that monastery, founded in 1101, became the chosen mausoleum of the Angevin dynasty and the centre of a new monastic Order, the Order of Fontevraud.
