Origin and history

The Convent of the Ursulines of Lannion is a religious building in the municipality of Lannion, Brittany. Built in the seventeenth century, it embodies the Conventual architecture of this period, marked by the influence of religious orders in education and local spiritual life. The building, partially listed as a historical monument in 1971, is distinguished by its facades and roofs, as well as by its chapel integrated into the whole.

In the 17th century, Brittany, a region deeply marked by Catholicism, saw the foundations of convents and religious establishments multiply. These places play a central role in girls' education, community life and assistance to the poorest. The Convent of the Ursulines of Lannion fits in this context, reflecting the importance of women's orders in the social and religious structure of the region.

Its inscription in 1971 bears witness to its heritage value, preserving a major architectural and historical heritage for the city.
