Cultural center offering exhibitions, film screenings, concerts, meetings and theology courses
Inaugurated in 2008 after a complete renovation, this Catholic cultural center offers a wide range of intellectual, cultural and spiritual activities. A rare vestige of the school buildings that abounded in the old Latin Quarter, this meeting place for dialogue dates back to the 13th century. Its superb Gothic nave with columns and ogives is a jewel of Cistercian architecture. After the French Revolution, it was used successively as a prison, warehouse, fire station and police boarding school.

Booked a guided tour on a Friday. The guide, former architect, was great. We had an excellent explanation about its building history in the 14th century and renovation in the 21st. Impressive as its underground was a derivated water. Beautiful building that hosts a variety of courses, events (private also) and expositions. They kept the original high wall outside in the (small) garden that kept the monks in. There used to be a church outside too that was put down when boulevard St Germain nearby was created. Highly recommended ????

Presque rien à voir, visiter. Juste rez de chaussée. Pas propre, beaucoup de tables et chaises vides. Librairie fermé les samedis.
