GRAND HÔTEL-DIEU, LYON
Dating back over 800 years, the Grand Hôtel-Dieu has a rich history. Built on the banks of the Rhône in 1184, the former hospital was first home to the monks of Hautecombe and of Chassagne-en-Bresse.
For many years, the building was a centre of medicine. The original vaulted ceilings and stone arches pictured here once contained the pharmacy and laboratory.
Over the site’s evolution, a chapel and a courtyard were added, and it was ‘crowned’ with a distinctive domed roof. The restoration of the hotel has been one of the largest listed building conversion projects ever undertaken in France. Now, it’s ready for a new era.
