Résidences Internationales aux Récollets

Cluster of residences for international students, known for varied architecture & green spaces. Located in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, Les Récollets is an International Welcome and Exchange Centre. It offers 80-81 furnished apartments and studios with hotel-like services, dedicated to hosting international researchers, scientists, and artists. Far from being a simple residence, Les Récollets fosters a dynamic community where creative solitude finds resonance and ideas are shaped. Housed in a historic convent founded in 1603, which later served as a military hospital and hospice, the site was inaugurated as a residence for international artists and researchers in 2003. It fulfills a cultural mission, leveraging the memory, history, and architectural heritage of the place to serve creation and research, providing a unique environment for those whose activities require a presence in Paris. The site also hosts the Maison de l'Architecture Ile-de-France.
