Hôtel-Dieu de Québec, Teaching hospital in Old Quebec, Canada
The Hôtel-Dieu de Québec occupies multiple stone buildings with vaulted cellars and provides specialized medical care in oncology and nephrology departments.
Founded in 1637 by Marie-Madeleine de Vignerot, three canonesses from Dieppe arrived in 1639 to establish medical care for the First Nations population.
The chapel, renovated by Thomas Baillairgé in 1803, contains the remains of Bishop Saint-Vallier and features art from Quebec artists of the 17th century.
The hospital includes an emergency department, research facilities at the Centre de recherche clinique, and maintains teaching partnerships with Université Laval medical school.
A burial ground within the hospital complex contains graves of more than 1,000 soldiers from historical conflicts in Quebec City.
