Hôtel-Dieu de Bourges, Renaissance hospital in Bourges, France

Hôtel-Dieu de Bourges is a former hospital with a Gothic section built 1510–1527 and a classical wing added 1628–1639. The street facade shows a tall chapel wall with a pointed-arch leaded window and a steep slate roof, beside a lower sick-room wall with five pointed-arch windows and three dormer windows above.

Construction of this medical facility began after the great fire of 1487, which destroyed a third of Bourges, and initial buildings were completed in 1526. The site thus formed part of a rebuilding effort that brought new structures to the city following that disaster.

The name hôtel-Dieu, literally "hostel of God", was the standard French term for a medieval hospital. The sick room was lit by fourteen lancet windows and ended in a large fireplace separating it from the pharmacy. The Renaissance door on the street side, carved by Marsault Paule, bears the symbols of the Passion and a niche with a bell where abandoned infants were left.

The complex stands along Rue Gambon, near Place Rabelais and the former western gate of Bourges. The 16th- and 17th-century buildings and the street gate are classified monuments, but the city is restoring them for cultural meetings, so access depends on events. The 1930s building on Rue Gambon now houses the maison des associations.

The gate on Rue Gambon, carved by Marsault Paule, carries symbols of the Passion and a niche with a bell where abandoned infants could be left. The chapel's buttresses are built inside the walls, so no supports project on the exterior.
