description The garrison house of La Visitation in Angers is one of many 'monastery-barracks' installed in religious buildings evacuated after the 1789 Revolution. It is characterized by its continuous occupation, taking advantage of a special location and of a large parcel of land. The successive architectural projects and negotiations as well as the presence of various army corps over sixty years, show the importance of the site which was partially amputated by the railway station project in the 1850s. With the construction of new military buildings on the outskirst of the town, in the late nineteenth century, the barracks were gradually abandoned and finally destroyed in 1904.
