This former convent borders the Rue des Larrons, which climbed along the Sarte hill to once lead to the gibbet. The enclosed grounds at the top of the street were used to train crossbowmen, hence the name Coteau des Albastries.
Of the monastery founded in 1233-1234 and mother house of the order, only a few buildings escaped the Revolution, namely the porch and the old brewery. Access to the monastery was through a semi-circular portal dating from 1742, lined with Tuscan pilasters supporting an entablature on which rests a curved pediment backed by fins. The hammered coat of arms of the general of the order in office at the time of its construction stands out in a rocaille style frame surmounted by a crown.
The old brewery from the end of the 17th century has two levels of decreasing height made of bricks, rubble and limestone, for the base and the horizontal strips, under a whitewash. The openings, whose asymmetry is more marked on the left side of the façade, set back, have been redesigned over time. A Mansard roof crowns it all. The interior furnishings consist of a neoclassical staircase from the end of the 18th century.
A wall made of small apparatus and quadrangular blocks limited the convent. It is adorned here and there with shields or potale.
