The College of Guienne (French: Collège de Guyenne) was a school founded in 1533 in Bordeaux.
The collège became renowned for the teaching of liberal arts between the years 1537 and 1571, attracting students such as Michel de Montaigne.
In 1533, the Jurade of Bordeaux (roughly equivalent to the city council) called teachers from Flanders and from Paris to create the Collège de Guyenne.
[2] The College of Guienne had Latin studies, and introduction to Ancient Greek and Hebrew[3] - like the contemporary Collège de France - On arrival, Gouveia proclaimed that he would not recognize differences of creed in staff and pupils, many of whom showed sympathy to the new doctrines of the Protestant Reformation.
The regulations of the Collège de Guyenne were published by Elie Vinet in 1583 under the title Schola Aquitanica.
