Antiguo Hospital de Nuestra Señora del Carmen, Former Baroque hospital in Cádiz, Spain.

The Hospital de Nuestra Señora del Carmen features a grand facade with ornate decorations and a central courtyard supported by Tuscan columns.

Established in 1749 by architect Pedro Luis Gutiérrez de San Martín, the hospital served female patients until its closure in 1963 due to financial constraints.

The building represents the evolution of Spanish healthcare facilities, incorporating religious elements through its internal church and multiple chapel spaces.

The former hospital now functions as the headquarters of the Diocese of Cádiz and Ceuta, with sections dedicated to Caritas charitable organization.

The imperial staircase within the building exhibits intricate geometric plasterwork patterns characteristic of Andalusian architectural techniques.
