Charenton (Asylum)

Charenton was an insane asylum, founded in 1645 by the Frres de la Charit in Charenton-Saint-Maurice, France. Charenton was known for its humanitarian treatment of patients. The Marquis de Sade was held at the Charenton asylum until his death in 1814 at the age of 74. Today, the name of the psychiatric hospital is Esquirol hospital, after Jean-Etienne Dominique Esquirol who directed the institution in the 19th century.
