Lycée Victor Hugo, Paris

The Lycée Victor-Hugo is a secondary school in the 3rd arrondissement, Paris, France.

The school is built on the site of the Convent of the Heavenly Annunciation, called the Blue Girls, founded in 1622.

Through a presidential decree of 17 July 1895, the school was named after the French writer Victor Hugo (1802-1885).

Due to growth in the number of pupils, the school purchased a group of buildings in 1938 on the rue Vieille-du-Temple, where it opened the petit lycée Victor-Hugo.

[1] The school now accommodates 480 students, from college to preparatory classes for the grandes écoles.
