Abbaye de Toussaint de Châlons

The abbey features notable architectural elements from the 16th century, including honored halls, classified facades, and preserved roofing structures.

The abbey, mentioned as Saint-Sulpice church in the 5th century, received its charter in 1062 and endured major fires in 1356 and 1359.

The building served multiple functions through centuries: a monastery, a convent for converted women, an artillery school, and a teacher training institution.

Located at 12 Place de l'École-des-Arts, the abbey became private property in 2006 and underwent renovations for residential housing development.

The structure stands on land formerly known as ban de Toussaints, surrounded by branches of the Marne River until 1567.
