Maison Dieu, Medieval hospital building in Faversham, England.
The stone and timber-framed structure features a 13th-century window, early 16th-century ceiling, and original moulded beams along Watling Street.
King Henry III established this hospital in 1234 as part of a complex offering care to pilgrims traveling toward Canterbury and the Holy Lands.
The building housed priests and lay brothers who provided medical assistance to local residents while maintaining religious services for travelers.
The museum displays Roman artifacts and medieval objects, opening during weekends and bank holidays from Good Friday through October.
The structure contains a special chamber, Camera Regis, which served as accommodation for English monarchs during their journeys through Kent.
