France (Burgundy)

The Courtyard and Polychrome Roof of the Hospices de Beaune (Burgundian Gothic Style)

2664

Constructed during the late 15th century under the Duchy of Burgundy, specifically built between 1443 and 1452 (with decorative roof tiling enhancements and structural restorations performed across subsequent centuries).

Architecturally, it serves as the administrative and communal heart of a charitable medieval hospital complex, designed to provide shelter and medical care to the poor while projecting the pious munificence and wealth of the Burgundian chancellor through majestic, symbolic architecture.
