Irish College in Toulouse
Irish College in Toulouse (1618-1793), was a seminary that trained priests while the Penal Laws prevented the training of priests in Ireland. History 
It was established in 1618 and given royal assent as 'le séminaire royal de Sainte Anne' in 1659. In 1660 it was formally linked to the University of Toulouse. As it was in his Diocese, the College was under the jurisdiction of the Archbishop of Toulouse, who visited the college in 1669. The Irish College in Toulouse, was a sister college of the Irish College in Bordeaux. Like Bordeaux it was supported by Anne of Austria, it followed the Bordeaux statues until it was constituted with its own statues. It obtained its own fully separate statues from Archbishop Charles Antoine de La Roche-Aymon, sanctioned by Pope Benedict XIV in 1754. It was closed in 1793 like the other Irish Colleges in French-controlled areas, following the French Revolution. Its property was sold by the French Government, while later in 1805 the remaining interests were transferred to the Irish College in Paris. Notables
