About the location

Maison d'éducation de la Légion d'honneur des Loges
Les Loges - Route d'Achères 78100 Saint-Germain-en-Laye
  • Yvelines
  • Île-de-France
Entirely rebuilt under Napoleon III, then enveloped by new constructions in 1962, this former convent of the Augustinians houses for nearly two centuries one of the educational houses of the Legion of Honour, boarding school for young girls founded by Napoleon I and attached to the great chancery of the order. It is a public institution and now houses 500 college students - girls, granddaughters and great-granddaughters of Legion of Honour, Military Medal and National Order of Merit. To celebrate the birth of her son, the future Louis XIV, at Saint-Germain on September 5, 1638, Anne of Austria had a convent of the Augustinians built near the chapel of Saint-Fiacre, whose buildings still standing in 1811 were destined by Napoleon I to the boarding school of the orphans of Madame de Lezeau. This orphanage became, under Louis XVIII, in 1816, the third House of Education of the Legion of Honour, after Ecouen and Saint-Denis.
