Show sight on map

The chapel of the Édouard-Herriot hospital in Lyon is located in the hospital complex built in the Grange Blanche district by the Lyon architect Tony Garnier from 1920. The initial project for this hospital, inaugurated by the President of the Republic Albert Lebrun in 1934, did not include a chapel. Following the demolition of the Hôpital de la Charité and by decision of the municipal council and the mayor Édouard Herriot, the sisters of the Hôpital de la Charité and those of the Hôtel-Dieu came to occupy these new premises as soon as they were completed. Tony Garnier entrusted the construction of the religious building to one of his students, Louis Thomas, who had joined his studio in 1924.
