If you just did this in Finder, use Edit → Undo. Otherwise restore the folder from a backup, for example one made with Time Machine. If you have no backup, the files are lost.

This is an OpenOffice forum, but you don't have a problem with the using OpenOffice software. You might receive more specific help with recovering files or folders in an Apple forum. A web search should find one.
If this solved your problem please go to your first post use the Edit ☐ button and add [Solved] to the start of the Subject field. Select the green checkmark icon at the same time.
