Lycée Saint-Charles

Education · by Vallée Patrice · 1992

31 avenue Saint-Fiacre, Orléans, France

The private educational institution Cours-Saint-Charles, established in Orléans in the 18th century, faced overcrowding in its premises on Rue du Bœuf Saint-Paterne by the 1980s. In collaboration with the city of Orléans, the diocese planned to construct a new high school in the recently developed ZAC Saint-Marceau area, situated on the south bank of the Loire River. Young architect Patrice Vallée, having worked with renowned firms, was assigned the project, marking one of the first significant works for his agency. Completed in 1992 under the regional council's delegated project management, Lycée Saint-Charles was later enhanced in 1994 with a gymnasium-restaurant designed by the same architect.
