Description

This hospital stands on the top of the hill of the town. On this privileged site, where a fortress once stood, now stands this hospital, which speaks of the new public importance of health care. This emblematic facility spreads out horizontally, creating a network of concatenated buildings and courtyards. The hospitalisation rooms are arranged around south-facing courtyards, so that the patient recovery areas are in optimal lighting and ventilation conditions. The service programmes are located to the north, outside the patient circulation flows.
