Scots College (Paris)

The Scots College sits at the corner of Rue du Cardinal Lemoine and Rue Clovis, recognizable by its sturdy seventeenth-century stone facade. Built between sixteen sixty-two and sixteen sixty-five, it was once a hub for Scottish Catholic scholars who had fled their homeland after the Reformation. These students relied on the college to maintain their national and religious networks, creating a rare pocket of Scottish history within the heart of Paris.
