50 years of history - CHU Caen Normandie

Since 1975, the Côte de Nacre tower has dominated the Caen skyline and embodies the heart of the Caen Normandy University Hospital. For 50 years, it has seen generations of caregivers, patients, and medical innovations.

Today, as it prepares to make way for the new hospital planned for 2027, we invite you on a journey through its history... and into the future.

“50 years of history(ies)” is a tribute to this symbol of public health in Normandy and an optimistic look at the medicine of tomorrow.
