{"product_id":"2882","title":"1906 Little Seminary Barracks in Langres France Vintage Postcard","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAbout This Vintage Postcard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis antique postcard captures a historic view of the Little Seminary Barracks (Caserne du Petit Séminaire) in the hilltop city of Langres. The scene features the imposing stone facade of the former religious institution, characterized by its classic mansard roof and rhythmic rows of dormer windows. High perimeter walls and a massive arched stone gateway frame the site, which stood as a quiet centerpiece of the Haute-Marne region’s ecclesiastical and military heritage. In the shadow of the gateway, a lone figure, likely a soldier on guard duty, stands at the entrance, emphasizing the building’s new role as a fortified military installation at the turn of the century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Divided Back (Circa 1906–1910)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Langres\u003cbr\u003eState or Region: Haute-Marne, Grand Est\u003cbr\u003eCountry: France\u003cbr\u003eTopic: military barracks, seminary history, Langres architecture, historic landmarks, urban fortifications\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003ePostage: Unused\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: Divided back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Horizontal (Landscape)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: Leon \u0026amp; Levy (LL)\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Levy Fils \u0026amp; Cie, Paris\u003cbr\u003ePrinter: Not listed\u003cbr\u003ePrint Type: Collotype, Phototype\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis card documents a specific turning point in French history following the 1905 law on the Separation of the Churches and the State. As a result of this legislation, the Petit Séminaire de Langres was closed in 1906 and the building was immediately requisitioned by the military. This card captures the structure during its very first years of service as a barracks, a role it served until 1922.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLove it ♡\u003cbr\u003eGet it ☆\u003cbr\u003eGet Lucky 💋 Vintage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Lucky Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46728076820669,"sku":"2882","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4818\/1181\/files\/2882.jpg?v=1777653059","url":"https:\/\/www.getluckyvintage.com\/products\/2882","provider":"Get Lucky Vintage ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
