Couvent Saint-François, Franciscan monastery in 14th arrondissement, France

The Couvent Saint-François features a chapel with stained glass windows, a cloister, and architectural elements inspired by Dom Bellot's religious design principles.

The Franciscan brothers returned to France after World War I and established this monastery between 1934 and 1935, following their expulsion due to the 1905 law.

The chapel displays artistic works by André Pierre, Pierre Villette, and Claude Malespine, representing different aspects of Franciscan spirituality through their creations.

Located at 7 rue Marie-Rose, the monastery opens its chapel to visitors from 7:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 2:45 PM to 7:30 PM, with Sunday mass at 10:30 AM.

Father Corentin Cloarec, chaplain of the Resistance fighters at Denfert-Rochereau, met his end at this monastery in June 1944 during the German occupation.
