Necker–Enfants Malades Hospital

The Necker–Enfants Malades Hospital (French: Hôpital Necker-Enfants Malades [opital nɛkɛʁ ɑ̃fɑ̃ malad]) is a French teaching hospital in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. It is a hospital of the Assistance Publique – Hôpitaux de Paris group and is affiliated to the Université Paris Cité. Necker–Enfants Malades Hospital was created in 1920 by the merger of Necker Hospital (Hôpital Necker), which was founded in 1778 by Suzanne Necker, with the physically contiguous Sick Children's Hospital (Hôpital des Enfants Malades), the oldest children's hospital in the Western world, founded in 1801.
