Old Ursuline Convent, New Orleans
Ursuline Convent was a series of historic Ursuline convents in New Orleans, Louisiana.
==The first building==
The first building for the Ursuline nuns in New Orleans was designed by Ignace François Broutin in 1727 when the nuns arrived in New Orleans. Michael Zeringue was the builder. Planning, collecting material, and construction took years. Existing drawings show the building in 1733, although it was not officially finished until the following year.
''Colombage'' (half-timbered) or ''briquette-entre-poteaux'' (brick-between-post) was the major form of French Colonial construction in the colony during the 18th century (see also Pitot House). Usually the exterior walls were then given a protective covering of stucco or wooden boards; but the fact that the timbered walls of the Ursuline Convent were left exposed is confirmed by a drawing from 1737. Such construction proved to be inappropriate for the humid climate of New Orleans (with significant deterioration already apparent by 1745),〔(Brantley, Edward. "NOLA History: The Old Ursuline Convent in the French Quarter", GoNOLA )〕 in addition to being a fire hazard.
