Noviciat des Dominicains, Dominican novitiate and monument in 7th arrondissement, France.

The Noviciat des Dominicains stands at 1 Place Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin, featuring architectural elements that characterize 18th-century religious buildings in Paris.

Construction of the novitiate began in 1682 under architect Pierre Bullet and reached completion in 1740, serving as a training center for Dominican brothers.

The building houses a collection of religious artworks, including paintings depicting Saint Louis, reflecting the deep connection between Dominican faith and French heritage.

Sciences Po Paris acquired the property in 2016 for 87 million euros and transformed the 14,000-square-meter space into educational facilities after renovation.

The complex contains two notable staircases: the south staircase maintains historical monument status while the north one undergoes continuous restoration work.

Location: 7th arrondissement of Paris
