Cinqfontaines (Five Wells) is home to a former monastery that was built at the beginning of the 20th century. From 1941 onwards, the monastery housed the "Jewish retirement home", although the name actually concealed a collection camp for deportations to concentration and extermination camps. After the war, the monastery was returned to its original purpose before becoming a place of retreat and meditation centre in 1973.

The Cinqfontaines Monastery was built by the Priests of the Sacred Heart in 1903 as a training center for young priests who left for the Congregation's missions in Congo and Brazil.
Between '41 and '43 the monastery was used by the Gestapo as a collection camp for Jews. About 700 Jews would be deported from here.

Cinqfontaines is home to an old monastery, built at the beginning of the 20th century. From 1941, the “Jewish retirement home” was housed in the monastery. It was in fact a collection camp before the deportation to the concentration and extermination camps. After the war, the monastery returned to its initial vocation before becoming a retreat and meditation center in 1973.
