Abandoned convent and college in France which was partly requisitioned by the army during World War I to house a hospital for recovering soldiers.
What to do with it has been much debated in the adjoining communities. The main reason for this seems to be that so many people in the region do not only remember the building in its former glory, but the institution as well. In 2007 a plan was launched to restore the building and turn it into a tourist complex including a hotel, spa or perhaps an equestrian centre. However a serious investor could not be found so the building has substantially deteriorated and as a result the costs of a possible restoration have risen. Just leaving it there as it is and letting nature take its course seems the only way to go.
