Discover the history of the cloister founded by monks of the Order of Cordeliers.

What better place to celebrate sustainable heritage than the centre of urban ecology! Located on the Sainte-Croix hill, the Cloister of the Recollets has been home to the European Institute of Ecology since 1971, which has earned Metz the nickname of «cradle of urban ecology». From this fertile melting pot are born new scientific disciplines today recognized worldwide: ecotoxicology and ethnopharmacology. A legacy that associations working to promote transitions and present on site strive to perpetuate. Come (re)discover this exceptional site during the European Heritage Days and the Recollet Week!

1-3 rue des Récollets, 57000 Metz
  • Moselle

Based(Established) by monks in the order of the Cordeliers who settled down on the hill Sainte-Croix in 1230, the cloister was occupied from 1602 and up to Revolution by Récollets who(which) became established there on their place. Buildings(Ships) knew diverse uses then: store with salt, coopers then shoemakers working for the army, workshops(studios) of charity, office(desk) of beneficence... On a part(party) of the gardens of the Convent of Récollets were built in 1863 of the reservoirs of water for the supply of the city. Today, the Local Archives occupy two old(former) reservoirs.
The Garden of the Simple (curative plants) of the cloister of Récollets presents a collection of more than 80 different sorts(species) with their precise and official therapeutic indications published by the French Agency of Sanitary Safety(Security) of the Products of Health (ANSM). The second garden proposes toxic plants used in the preparation of medicine as anticancer agents, tonic cardiac or else powerful painkillers.
