Lyon's Grand Hôtel-Dieu: Eight Centuries as a Hospital, Now a Hotel and Food Hall
The chapel front is the part most people photograph without knowing what they are looking at. It sits at a corner off Rue Bellecordière, wedged between café awnings and a modern glass shopfront, and the inscription cut into the stone above the door reads LE GRAND HOSTEL DIEV. Old spelling, U carved as V in the Roman manner. Above the door there is a Pietà in relief, which is the dedication itself: Notre-Dame de Pitié.
