Discovering the Hôtel-Dieu

Welcome to the Hôtel-Dieu!
Throughout the year, we invite you to discover or rediscover the Hôtel-Dieu. Our 2025 program, HUMANITY (following Hospitality in 2023 and Charity in 2024), pays tribute to all those who have worked and continue to work alongside the sick. Meet-and-greet tours, sensory workshops and starry nights invite you to share in the history and spirit of this centuries-old place.

About this tour | Discover the Hôtel-Dieu des Hospices Civils de Beaune, a hospital founded in 1443 by Nicolas Rolin, Chancellor of the Dukes of Burgundy, and his wife Guigone de Salins. A charitable institution entrusted to the care of the hospital sisters, this “palace for the poor” dedicated to the wandering and destitute sick remained in operation until 1971. Renowned for its polychrome, glazed terracotta roofs, the Hôtel-Dieu is also an important reminder of hospital history, with its Last Judgement polyptych by Rogier van der Weyden, its treatment rooms, kitchen, apothecary and collections of furniture and works of art.
