Couvent des Cordeliers, Medieval convent in Mont-de-Marsan, France.
The Cordeliers convent included a cloister, the Notre-Dame-des-Anges chapel, and additional buildings with a cemetery for local residents.
Founded between 1260 and 1270 by Gaston de Moncade, Viscount of Marsan, and his wife Mathe de Matha, who invited Franciscan monks to establish the religious institution.
The Franciscan monks, known in France as Cordeliers due to their distinctive robes, sustained themselves through donations from the Marsan vicomté inhabitants.
The convent grounds were transformed into new streets after being sold as national property in 1797, with some architectural elements integrated into current neighborhood houses.
During the French Revolution, the monks were arrested for refusing to swear allegiance to the Civil Constitution of the Clergy, leading to the convent's permanent closure.
