Institut Saint-Ghislain et crèche Saint-Antoine et Sainte-Marguerite, rue des Capucins 30-34

A school building of ten bays and three storeys, influenced by Art Deco, designed by the architect Ch. De Lestré in 1939. The brick facade is given a vertical rhythm by a bay of trapezoidal bow-windows above the entrance and by a taller bay on the right with a bevelled corner. The Art Deco influence shows in the arched bluestone doorway, with a keystone carved with flowers, in the design of the window frames and large windows, and in the wrought-iron balustrade that crowns the facade. A plaque to the right of the entrance records the laying of the first stone in 1935.
