Toulouse Regional Conservatory, Music and performing arts school in Toulouse, France

The Toulouse Regional Conservatory occupies the former Hôpital Larrey, a listed building on a long brick and pinkish-orange facade with white-framed windows and a low tiled roof. A raised terrace with white metal railings stands above a glazed barrel-vaulted canopy at its base. Inside, the school teaches music, choreography and drama.

Founded on 13 March 1820 as the Toulouse School of Music, it became a branch of the Paris Conservatoire in 1840. From 1866 to 1993 it occupied premises on rue Labéda, at the site of today's Théâtre de la Cité (no. 4). It then moved into the former Hôpital Larrey, a listed monument historique, where it still operates.

The school teaches music, choreography and drama, awarding certificates in musical and choreographic studies and diplomas in choreographic, musical and theatrical studies. Its classes à horaires aménagés link it with primary schools Lakanal and Rangueil, collège Michelet and lycée Saint-Sernin.

The conservatory occupies the former Hôpital Larrey, a listed monument historique, and is not a site open for casual tours; access follows the school's own reception arrangements. The entrance on the photograph's side sits above a glazed barrel-vaulted canopy reached from the raised terrace with white metal railings. The nearest metro station is on line B at François Verdier, a short walk away.

The building is the former Hôpital Larrey, inscribed as a monument historique. The school has occupied it since 1993, when it left rue Labéda, where it had stood since 1866 on the site of today's Théâtre de la Cité at no. 4.
