Abstract
|
|
|
|
Beaune is a small town in the Bourgogne region and renowned for its Hotel Dieu. The hospital is no longer active, and it was transformed into a unique hospital museum about thirty years ago and attracts many visitors from the world all over. The museum reveals very well how a hospital was like in pre-Modern period and how medicine was closely interrelated with Christianity. A hospital at that period of time was not an avant-garde medicine, but it was an institute for Christian charity, and sisters took care of the patients. No less interesting is to visit a cave attached to the hospital.
