The Ministère de la Culture's notice

L'hôpital est logé dans un bâtiment dépendant de l'ancienne abbaye de la Madeleine. La partie centrale forme une demi-rotonde en saillie, ornée de sculptures faisant opposition à l'aile centrale, très sobre. Ces constructions datent du 18e siècle. Au 19e siècle, deux ailes en retour furent adjointes au bâtiment de fond, ainsi qu'une chapelle de style néo-roman sur la façade postérieure, en arrière du pavillon central. Les deux ailes ont été construites dans la continuité de l'ordonnance du bâtiment de fond. Intérieurement, les parties anciennes conservent un escalier et des salles voûtées datant du 18e siècle.

The hospital is housed in a building dependent on the former abbey of the Madeleine. The central part forms a projecting semi-rotunda, ornamented with sculptures in contrast to the central wing, which is very sober. These constructions date from the 18th century. In the 19th century, two return wings were added to the back building, as well as a chapel of neo-Romanesque style on the rear façade, behind the central pavilion. The two wings were constructed in continuity with the ordonnance of the back building. Internally, the older parts retain a staircase and vaulted rooms dating from the 18th century.
