One of the oldest faculties of medicine in the Western world, located in Montpellier

The Faculty of Medicine of Montpellier is one of the oldest in the Western world. The building that houses it today was built in 1364 at the request of Pope Urban V to accommodate the Saint-Benoît-et-Saint-Germain monastery. At the time, it was part of the same complex as Saint Peter's Cathedral. It was not until 1795 that the faculty made it its residence, but before that, as early as the twelfth century, informal teachings were conducted there. In 1289, Pope Nicholas IV granted the title of university to all the teachers and students.

A faire dans le cadre de la visite guidée par l'Office de tourisme de Montpellier.
Les guides sont passionnants et les lieux magiques.
Très belle salle d'anatomie, la seule en Europe.
Le bâtiment avec ses salles est superbe.

Comment visiter Montpellier sans passer par la 1ère faculté d'Europe !! Superbe architecture, une cour centrale magnifique, l'amphithéatre d'anatomie nous replonge au 13ème siècle, et le bureau du doyen pourrait tout aussi bien être celui de Dumbledore ^^
