Hospice Saint-Nicolas de Troyes, Historical hospital building in central Troyes, France.
The Saint-Nicolas Hospice presents a neoclassical architecture with rectangular layouts, six courtyards, and a garden, centered around a main chapel with a cubic tower.
The original medieval hospital from the 12th century, managed by cathedral canons, was replaced by the current structure built between 1836 and 1844 by architect Martin Pierre Gauthier.
The chapel retains its original painted decorations from 1845 by Anne-François Arnaud and features stained glass windows created by local artist Hugot of Troyes.
The protected elements include the facades, roofs, entrance gates with pillars, boundary walls, and the surrounding plot, all registered as historical monuments since 1996.
During the 17th century, residents manufactured a specific type of fabric known in the textile industry as 'Saint-Nicolas serge'.
