About the location

Couvent des Ursulines et Chapelle St Joseph

11 rue de la Trinité, 22200, Guingamp

Côtes-d'Armor
Bretagne

This convent was built in 1668 by the Ursulines, in charge of the education of girls. The chapel is decorated with the first Renaissance facade of a female convent in Guingamp. It inspired two other convents at Guingamp: the convent of the Augustines and that of Montbareil. The revolutionary turmoil put an end to the activities of the convent, which had various often military assignments. Today, the conventual building is the seat of Guingamp-Paimpol Agglomeration.
