Chapelle de l'Hôtel-Dieu de Lyon, Baroque chapel in Bellecour district, Lyon, France.
The chapel features a single nave with lateral chapels, allowing clear views toward the choir through the basilica-style interior layout.
Construction of the chapel began in 1637 under architect Guillaume Ducellet, facing delays due to a plague outbreak before completion in 1655.
The interior walls display paintings by Gioacchino Serangeli and François de Loras, along with sculptures created by Joseph-Hugues Fabisch.
Visitors can access the chapel from Tuesday to Sunday between 2:30 PM and 6:30 PM, with regular masses held throughout the week.
The chapel contains approximately 4,000 square meters of decorative elements using trompe l'oeil techniques and gold materials interacting with natural light.
