Prince Albert II officially inaugurated the Belvédère building at the Centre Hospitalier Princesse Grace (CHPG) on the morning of Tuesday 22nd April, marking a significant milestone in Monaco’s healthcare development. The new facility houses the Maison du Don, a dedicated blood donation centre, and the Anatomopathology Laboratory, now equipped with advanced molecular biology capabilities.
Accompanied by Government Ministers Céline Caron-Dagioni and Christophe Robino, as well as CHPG Director Benoîte Rousseau de Sevelinges, the Prince toured the new spaces, which represent the first phase of the broader New CHPG project.
