In the department of Aisne, the Prieuré de Saint-Lambert is a ruin located in the commune of Fourdrain.
The altar of Saint-Lambert in the 13th century was given by the bishop of Laon, Elinand, to the new regular chapter of Saint-Jean-du-Bourg de Laon. This chapter first leased it to two ecclesiastics and then sold it to the abbaye, de chanoines réguliers de saint Augustin, Saint-Crépin en Chaye de Soissons in 1298.
The priory remained in the hands of this abbaye until the Revolution. The monument was registered as a historic monument in 1927 and 2002.
