HOSPITAL OF THE INFANT JESUS

OSPEDALE DEL BAMBIN GESÙ


Transferred here in the years 1879/87 from Via delle Zoccolette where it had been founded ten years before by the Duchess Arabella Fits-James, wife of Marquis Salviati, to assist poor sick children

Now the Hospital of the Infant Jesus has three other locations: Santa Marinella, Palidoro and another newly built by the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls


It was completely restored in the years 1926/30 and expanded in 1960
 
Now it has 600 beds and is the largest pediatric hospital in central and southern Italy
