The Hôtel-Dieu is a former hospital in Beaune. It was founded in 1443 and used as a hospital until 1971. The Hôtel-Dieu is now part of the Hospices Civils de Beaune complex. Today, parts of the old complex are used as a retirement home, while the rest can be visited as a museum, providing interesting insights into nursing in the early modern period.

Originally, this building was a convent of the Ursulines, built in 1697. The church of the Ursuline convent featured a bell tower and was open to the public for mass. Its walls were adorned with statues, paintings, and fleur-de-lis, remnants of which were still visible in the 1940s. The Ursuline sisters provided education to the daughters of notable families within this enclosed complex. In 1790, during the French Revolution, the convent was declared National Property along with other religious buildings in Beaune. By 1793, the municipal administration, needing more space, purchased the convent. A fire in 1815 led to extensive renovations, giving the building its current appearance. By 1818, the facade was decorated with regal and military symbols.

The Basilica of Notre-Dame de Beaune is a canonical complex dating from the second half of the 12th century located in Beaune in Côte-d'Or. The Collegiate Basilica of Notre-Dame de Beaune is one of the last great Romanesque churches in Burgundy.
