The Chapel of Lariboisiere Hospital is a Roman Catholic chapel located at 2 Rue Ambroise-Pare in the 10th arrondissement of Paris. It was built between 1846 and 1853 as the centerpiece of a new hospital built in response to a major cholera epidemic that struck Paris in 1839. It was opened in 1854. The chapel is in the Renaissance Revival architectural style, with lavish interior art and decoration.
