The Argentan Abbey (French: Abbaye Notre-Dame d'Argentan) is an 11th-century Benedictine abbey in Argentan, France. It is now a restaurant.

Nuns transferred from Almenêches in 1736 but dispersed during the French Revolution. They reassembled at Vimoutiers in 1822 and finally returned to Argentan in 1830. As a result of fighting during World War II, the nuns were forced to flee to Sées from 1944 to 1958.
