Henri-IV High School is a public secondary and higher education institution renowned for its excellent results. It is also listed as a historical monument for some of its buildings inherited from the former abbey of Sainte-Geneviève, which date from the 12th to the 18th century: cloister, Clovis tower (former bell tower), chapel (former refectory), Medal room (former cabinet of curiosities). Renovation work carried out around 1996 uncovered remnants of the Carolingian period.
