history
In the 11th century, Saint-Pierre-de-Salerne Onfroi de Vieilles († around 1050) belonged to the abbey of Saint-Pierre-de-Salerne after the founding of the Abbey of Saint-Pierre de Préaux in Les Préaux (Eure) gave. However, the copial book of the Abbey of Saint-Pierre de Préaux often does not differentiate between Saint-Cyr-de-Salerne and Saint-Pierre-de-Salerne, but names both Salerne and Salernia . In 1070 Roger de Beaumont (1015-1094) gave the Seigneurie Saint-Pierre-de-Salerne to the convent of Saint-Léger de Préaux in Les Préaux after his daughter had entered the convent.
