It has been successively the site of a Roman villa, a thirteenth century monastery, and then a junior seminary, founded in 1802, a few short years after the terrible massacres of Catholics throughout the Vend\u00e9e region. It began a new chapter of its history in 2002 with the opening of our international Catholic boarding school for boys.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Click here to view this year&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chavagnes.org\/en_gb\/prospectus\/\">Prospectus<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tChavagnes International College is a boys&#8217; Catholic boarding school in France, based on the English classical education tradition.
