THE OLDEN TEACHING ! ...

In 1614, a monastery was built at the exterior of the town by the "Franciscains Récollets". The teaching was free. The study of languages was very developed.

In 1682, the small market town of Givet was surrounded by ramparts. By security, the religious transfered their establishment to the centre of Saint-Hilaire quarter (close to the actual cultural centre of the "Recollectines").

In 1881, the Higher Primary School was created. It was occupied by the German troups from 1914 to 1918 and tranformed, during this period of occupation, in a military hospital (Lazaret in German).

In 1926, on the Givet's municipal council's request, the Higher Primary School was rebaptized "Vauban School" (actually the Vauban Scolary hall).
