The Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau or Hospital de Sant Pau for short is a hospital complex in the Catalan Art Nouveau ( Modernisme ) in Barcelona in Spain .
The Catalan banker Pau Gil ordered the construction of a hospital in his will. With these funds, the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau was built from 1902 to 1911 by the Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner along the Avinguda Sant Antoni Maria Claret. Domenèch embedded 48 independent pavilions , which were needed for the various medical departments, in a spacious garden. The connecting corridors, like all other technical facilities, are laid underground. Various sculptures on the facade and inside were designed by the sculptor Pablo Gargallo .
By 1911, however, only about a quarter of the planned buildings could be completed. Then the means were exhausted. In 1912 the second construction phase began. The planned relocation of the old Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau from the city center financed the further construction of the clinic, which his son Pere Domènech i Roura continued after the death of Luis Domènech in 1923 .
On January 16, 1930, King Alfonso XIII. the new hospital of its destination.
The old building complex Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau is no longer used as a hospital , a new building north of the site was started in 2003 and completed in 2009. Since then, the old buildings, which together with the Palau de la Música Catalana, have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 1997, have been renovated . According to current plans, institutes such as the Institute for the Alliance of Civilizations ( United Nations University ) and the European Forest Institute will be housed there from 2014 .
