Clinique Saint-Jean

Brussels, Belgium · built 1195

The Clinique Saint-Jean (French) or Kliniek Sint-Jan (Dutch), meaning "St. John's Clinic", and historically known as the Saint-Jean-op-de-Poel Hospital, is a private non-profit general hospital in central Brussels, Belgium. Founded in 1195, it is Brussels' oldest hospital. Its medical facility was started in 1838 and completed in 1843, across from the Botanical Garden of Brussels on the Boulevard du Jardin botanique/Kruidtuinlaan. Through the eight centuries of its existence, the Clinique Saint-Jean has been the founder of other major hospitals in the Brussels-Capital Region and of two nursing schools. It is currently part of the Réseau Santé Louvain network of the Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain).
