Hôpital de la Charité (French pronunciation: [opital la ʃaʁite], "Charity Hospital") was a hospital in Paris founded by the Brothers Hospitallers of St. John of God in the 17th century. In 1935, it was closed and demolished to make way for the new faculty of medicine. Located at 45, rue des Saints-Pères, the premises currently house the Saints-Pères university centre, one of the sites of the Paris Cité University.
