It thus fulfils its essential objective on the one hand to value this Hôtel-Dieu unique in New Aquitaine and, on the other hand, to be a "memory courier" in the medical field. If the ground floor allows you to situate the building in the history of France and discover a sacred art room, the floor, with its four rooms, brings you into this exciting world of medicine in the fields of pharmacy, dentistry, medicine and surgery.
