According to the foundation legend, the reason for this is that a barbel was fished out of the Seine and found to contain a ring mounted with a precious stone, lost by Saint Loup as he crossed the river, the sale of which raised the funds to build the monastery. In 1180 Louis VII, the founder, was buried in the abbey; his remains were transferred to St. Denis' Abbey in 1817.
