Hôpital Richaud, Historic hospital and monument in central Versailles, France.
The former royal hospital complex features pale yellow facades, surrounded by pedestrian paths and stretches across multiple buildings centered around a courtyard.
Originally established as Maison de la charité by Louis XIII in 1636, the hospital construction extended from 1781 to 1859 under architect Charles François Darnaudin.
The building's chapel transformed into Espace Richaud now functions as an exhibition center, presenting art shows and cultural events throughout the year.
The renovated complex contains residential units, commercial spaces, and public gardens, all connected through an integrated network of pedestrian walkways.
The facility ceased medical operations in 1981 and underwent complete transformation in 2015, converting from healthcare to mixed-use while preserving historical elements.
