Couvent Saint-Paul, Thiviers, Religious convent in Thiviers, France
The Couvent Saint-Paul stands as a neo-Romanesque structure with twin statues of Mary and Jesus positioned above its main entrance portal.
Founded in 1870 by Augustine Faure, the convent initially operated as an orphanage and educational institution for girls under the Sisters of Sacred Heart.
The convent maintains the tradition of Latin Mass services, contributing to the preservation of classical Catholic liturgical practices in Dordogne.
Visitors can attend Sunday Mass at 10:30 AM and weekday services at 8:00 AM, with prior confirmation recommended through the provided contact information.
Following years of abandonment and various transformations, including service as a military hospital, the convent now functions as a spiritual retreat center.
