La Crête Abbey was a Cistercian monastery in the commune of Bourdons-sur-Rognon. It was founded in 1121 as the second daughter house of Morimond Abbey by Simon de Clefmont, after a failed attempt at a foundation in 1118 at the site now known as La Vieille-Crête. The abbey was very active in founding further monasteries: Les Vaux-en-Ornois in Saint-Joire (1130), Saint-Benoît-en-Woëvre (1132), Les Feuillants (1145) and Matallana in Villalba de los Alcores (1173).
It was suppressed during 1791 in the French Revolution, when the church and conventual buildings were mostly demolished. Little remains of the mediaeval structures, known from a plan of 1705, apart from the chapter house. The gate house of 1715 also survives.
References:The Broch of Clickimin is a large and well preserved, though somewhat restored broch near Lerwick. Originally built on an island in Clickimin Loch (now increased in size by silting and drainage), it was approached by a stone causeway. The water-level in the loch was reduced in 1874, leaving the broch high and dry. The broch is situated within a walled enclosure and, unusually for brochs, features a large 'blockhouse' between the opening in the enclosure and the broch itself. Another unusual feature is a stone slab featuring sculptured footprints, located in the causeway which approached the site. Situated across the loch is the Clickimin Leisure Centre.
