Hôpital Charles-Foix, Regional medical center in Ivry-sur-Seine, France

The Hôpital Charles-Foix is a regional medical center in Ivry-sur-Seine organized across multiple buildings with specialized departments. It provides geriatric care, psychiatric services, and rehabilitation programs designed to meet the medical needs of elderly patients.

Built from 1864 to 1869 by architect Théodore Labrouste as the hospice des Incurables d'Ivry, on land bought by the Assistance publique in 1851 that had held a 1691 château park. It opened in 1873 under Mac-Mahon, and in 1976 was renamed for the neurologist Charles Foix, its former department head. The chapel was listed as a monument historique in 1997.

The name honours Charles Foix, the neurologist who headed the service and after whom the hospice was renamed in 1976. In the chapel, the Merklin-Schutze organ of 1869, with its three manuals and rare free-reed stop, is kept in use by Les Amis des orgues d'Ivry. The right transept holds the marble cenotaph of Cardinal de La Rochefoucauld by Philippe de Buyster, moved here from the Incurables hospice on rue de Sèvres.

The facility spans multiple connected buildings, so it helps to get oriented upon arrival or ask staff for directions. Visitors should keep in mind this is an active medical facility where certain areas may not be publicly accessible.
