The Pontifical French Seminary (La. Pontificium Seminarium Gallicum, Fr.: Séminaire Pontifical Français, It. PontificioSeminario Francese) is a Roman College dedicated to training French-speaking Catholic priests.

History

In 1853 the French bishops held the Council of La Rochelle, where they proposed a plan for a French Seminary in Rome to train priests strongly attached to the Holy See and able to counteract Gallican ideas. They successfully petitioned Pius IX to approve this idea. The seminary opened in 1853 with 12 students under the direction of Lamurien of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit, an order which was in charge of the college until 2009. Its first site was the old Irish college near Trajan's Forum.[1]

In 1856 Pius IX assigned to the seminary the Church of Santa Chiara with what had been the adjoining Poor Clare convent, founded in 1560 by St. Charles Borromeo on the ruins of the baths of Agrippa. After the new Italian government evicted the College of Saint Thomas from the convent of Santa Maria sopra Minerva in 1873, the College was able to continue after the French seminary's Rector Tommaso Maria Zigliara offered refuge at the Pontifical French Seminary.[2][3]

Santa Chiara was rebuilt on the plan of Notre-Dame-des-Victoires in Paris, in 1883 the monastery was entirely remodeled to suit its present purpose. Leo XIII declared it a pontifical seminary in 1902. As of the early 1900s there were between 100 and 120 seminarians.[4]

Henri Le Floch fue rector desde principios del siglo XX hasta finales de la década de 1920. [ 5 ] El apoyo de Le Floch a Action Française provocó su destitución a petición del gobierno francés. [ 6 ] Uno de los alumnos de Le Floch fue el arzobispo Marcel Lefebvre , fundador de la tradicionalista Sociedad Católica Romana de San Pío X , quien atribuyó su conservadurismo al tiempo que pasó en el seminario. [ 7 ] Los primeros sacerdotes pertenecientes a la Sociedad de San Pío X provenían del Seminario Francés. [ 8 ]

En 2009, la administración del seminario fue transferida de los Espiritanos a la Conferencia Episcopal de Francia. [ 9 ]

vida universitaria

La mayoría de los estudios se realizan en la Universidad Gregoriana . El alumnado está compuesto tanto por seminaristas como por sacerdotes que desean continuar sus estudios. El seminario se encuentra en la Via di Santa Chiara. [ 10 ] También se admiten estudiantes no franceses.
