The College of Juilly (French: Collège de Juilly) was a Catholic private teaching establishment located in the commune of Juilly, in Seine-et-Marne (France). Directed by the French Oratorians, it was created in 1638 by the Congregationists headed by Father Charles de Condren.
According to the legend,
Crusades. Joan of Arc
might have sojourned there while coming back from Orleans.
The monks quit the abbey in 1637 and handed it out to the Oratorians, who created an internship for the education of the
fleur-de-lys
on its arm. The Juilly College also served many times as a war hospital.
Its library notably contained of a reproduction of the
La Fayette, as well as Diderot's original Encyclopédie. The school closed due to financial difficulties in 2012 and the property subjected to vandalism and decay.[1] As of 2021 local interests proposed redevelopment of the school property into residential apartments.[2]
