A hôtel-Dieu ("hostel of God") was a name given to French hospitals for the poor and needy, run by the Catholic Church. These days these buildings or institutions have either kept their function as a hospital, the one in Paris being the oldest and most renowned, or have been converted into hotels, musea or general purpose buildings (for instance housing a Préfecture, the administrative head office of a French department). Therefore, as a secondary meaning, the name hôtel-Dieu can also refer to the building itself, even if it is no longer housing a hospital. Examples include: ;France *Hôtel-Dieu d'Angers, founded in 1153, one of the oldest in France *Hôtel-Dieu de Beaune, founded in 1443 *Hôtel-Dieu of Carpentras, built in 1754 *Hôtel-Dieu de Lyon, created in 1478 *Hôtel-Dieu de Paris, founded in 660 *Hôtel-Dieu de Tonnerre, founded in 1293 and still preserved as part of the chief hospital of the town ;Canada *Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal, Montreal *Hôtel-Dieu de Québec, Quebec City *Hotel Dieu Shaver Health and Rehabilitation Centre, formerly the Hotel Dieu Hospital in St. Catharines, Ontario *Hôtel-Dieu Grace Hospital, Windsor, Ontario *Hotel Dieu Hospital (Kingston, Ontario), Kingston, Ontario ;Other *University Hospital, New Orleans, previously known as Hôtel-Dieu *Hôtel-Dieu de France, Beirut, Lebanon, a private hospital owned by the French state ==See also== *French Hospital (disambiguation) *List of hospitals in France 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hôtel-Dieu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
