The building is extant, but it has not been used as a church since 1789 when it was seized during
the Revolution and remade for use as barracks and then a spinning mill. In the nineteenth
century the church and the convent were used as a hospice and then a military hospital. Today
the complex houses the Centre International d’Accueil et d’Echanges des Récollets, a residency
program for artists and writers, and the Ordre des Architectes d’Ile de France.

seventeenth-century architecture are Biver, Abbayes, 365-73; Hautecoeur, Architecture
classique, 1, pt. 3:222.
