L'abbazia di Staffarda fu costruita attendibilmente a partire dal quarto decennio del XII secolo su terreni donati nei primi anni del XII secolo dal marchese Manfredo I di Saluzzo ai monaci dell'Ordine cistercense per farne un centro di bonifica della campagna circostante. Nell'arco di poco tempo, nel corso del XII secolo, sorgono nell'area piemontese, derivate da La Ferté (che è una, assieme a Citeaux, Morimond, Pontigny e Fontenay, delle "madri" di tutte le fondazioni dell'ordine), quattro abbazie cistercensi: Lucedio in provincia di Vercelli, Staffarda (a Revello in provincia di Cuneo), Casanova (Carmagnola in provincia di Torino) e Rivalta Scrivia (provincia di Alessandria); ma per prima, poco più a sud, su territori dell'appennino ligure un tempo appartenenti agli Aleramici nonché tuttora in diocesi di Acqui, ne sorse una quinta: Tiglieto (Campo Ligure in provincia di Genova). Sono infatti Tiglieto e Lucedio i primi insediamenti cistercensi della penisola e, così come l'insieme di tutte le abbazie citate, naturale irradiazione dalla vicina Borgogna e originario principio della successiva irradiazione ad est e a sud. Su questo territorio il 31 luglio 1690 si svolse la sanguinosa battaglia di Staffarda, tra i piemontesi di Vittorio Amedeo II di Savoia e i francesi del generale Catinat, con danni ingenti alle strutture architettoniche dell'abbazia (in particolare il chiostro e il refettorio).
