Abstract
In Italy, during the Thirties of the last century the type of monobloc was established as a hospital building.
This typology, in the intentions, had to replace that of the pavilion’s hospitals, conceived as enormous
complexes of isolated buildings. But nevertheless, the citadels for care continued to be imagined,
conceived, built, modifying the face of entire urban areas, or often leading the way for the urbanization of
areas that had hitherto been isolated, also marking the start of vast programs of public utility, often
completed after the Second World War. The cases of the Niguarda area with the new Ospedale Maggiore
in Milan, or of the hill between Arenella and the Camaldoli in Naples with the new modern hospital XIII
Marzo later dedicated to Antonio Cardarelli, as well as the Policlinico of Pavia are significant.
The contribution aims to analyze and compare the history of some emblematic cases of hospitals, to
understand what lessons we can learn, and which can be consistent with the needs and paradigms of our
contemporaneity. We have already experienced some needs, due to the pandemic emergency, in the last
year, in the form of social distancing, domestic segregation and the forced suspension of a large area of
social and economic, private and collective activities. In this perspective, some thoughts about the actual
role and validity, of the hospital building system with pavilions will be proposed.

1.
The pavilion hospital typology: a model between medicine and architecture
In the Age of Enlightenment, alongside architectural experiments based on scientific studies and thanks
to the typological researches of architectural schools in France [1], [2], hospitals with different pavilions
depending on the disease, which occupied large parts of the city [3], [4], spread almost everywhere.
The first pavilion hospitals were initially organized in a single building characterized by the typological
invariant of the sequence of combs connected to each other by a distribution connective. However, they
were functionally independent so as to ensure the separation of patients by class of pathology. These
complexes became progressively larger until they assumed the most recent conformation of building
systems divided into several morphologically similar buildings, and usually arranged on regular and
ordered alignments. In the latter case, the choice of location – as brought about by modern medical
provisions – fell on the occupation of areas on the margins, as it was believed that the circulation of air
and sunshine were hindered by the existing buildings in the city, waste sewage in the intra moenia areas
could infiltrate the ground, especially in the absence of rational sewage systems. Thus, in the preindustrial phase, the relationship between city and care was measured by the adaptations of care
complexes in the context of wider urban transformations, so much so that the “hospital” entity –
especially in recent years’ studies – has become a prism of elements through which it is possible to
interpret the history of many cities [5], [6]. The first implementations concerned psychiatric asylums.
Some solutions were also deemed effective for general hospitals. Especially in France, there were
experiments on the theme of panoptism, useful both for prisons and especially for hospitals. The story
of Hôtel-Dieu is emblematic [7].

Since the Napoleonic era, public services in continental Europe became completely secular. Hygienists,
health engineers and architects became the actors of a debate that would have profoundly affected the
places of care set up in cities to resist or adapt to health crises such as those due to epidemics. In the
mid-nineteenth century, in Italy the contributions of scientists, such as Giuseppe Sormani, illustrious
professor of Hygiene at the University of Pavia, who in his Geografia nosologica listed the characteristics
of modern hospitals followed one another more and more [8]. After the serious epidemic in Italy of 188485, the proposals of hygienic engineers led in addition to the enactment of legislative measures [9], to
the ad hoc conception of hospital citadels, based on the distribution to isolated pavilions connected with
tunnels (underground, elevated, closed or open). The birth of the many hospital citadels was dictated
by the fact that the already existing places of care were no longer sufficient and adequate, mostly
obtained in the many suppressed monasteries. The reuse of the conventual structures that took place
after the Italian Unification was suitable for ministries, university buildings and barracks, but not for
hospitals. With the progress of medicine and the specificity of clinics, the monasteries show all the limits
in relation to modern functional needs. In particular, epidemiological advances confirmed the traditional
techniques of collective prophylaxis and the principle of isolation, which were crucial in defining the
relationship between treatment centers and urban cores [10]. Born with the American Civil War (the
Mower Hospital in Philadelphia is well known), the pavilion system was widely used in the Germanic
wars of 1866 and 1870-71 [11].

In Italy, the Sant’Andrea of Genova (1877-84) built by Cesare Parodi, thanks to the funds made available
by the Duchess of Galliera, was among the first large hospitals to be conceived with the layout of the
pavilions. Since there, everywhere, works were undertaken for the construction from scratch of health
establishments with the new arrangement, from Mauriziano Umberto I of Turin (1882-85), built on the
conception of the engineer Ambrogio Perincioli and of the doctor Giovanni Spantigati [12], up to the Policlinico
Umberto I in Rome, designed by Giulio Podesti (1883-96) [13], to Broni hospital (1885-90) built on a design
by the engineer Febo Bottini [14], and to Umberto I hospital of Monza (1890-96), made by Ercole Balossi
Merlo [15]. The best choice seemed to be that of the pavilions, because they guaranteed insulation,
ventilation and lighting, all that was considered “hygienic”. Rather, the discussions concerned how to
articulate and locate the different pavilions, both within a large area and with respect to the city center. At the
beginning of the twentieth century, the construction of modern polyclinics, authentic cities within cities,
experienced an unprecedented acceleration, just as the historical structures were modified and expanded
with the construction of isolated pavilions, to the point that they assumed a decisive role in the definition of
entire sectors urban, as in the case of the Ospedale Maggiore in Milan which extended with the many
pavilions beyond the naviglio [16], [17], or the Policlinico of Pavia [18].
The layout in pavilions implied the occupation of large areas, which for small-medium-sized cities (as
happened for example in Broni, Legnano, Novara, Forlì, Cremona, Udine, Padua) meant rethinking the
strategic role of these hospitals (civil, military, or psychiatric), in relation both to the consolidated historical
contexts and to the future development that they wanted to give to general urban planning. During Fascism,
the places of healthcare, like the other public buildings that were redesigning the face of entire urban
parts, began to be built with the most up-to-date provisions, the most effective materials, the most
functional distribution schemes, and in specific case with the fruitful and effective collaborations between
architects and doctors. Within the consolidated urban meshes, the pavilion hospital system had proved
to be the best up to that time. Even if it had soon revealed all the defects related to the large areas
occupied and the costs of operation, transport and surveillance. In the requests of the many competitions
(Ravenna, Padua, Pescara, etc.) launched between the two wars, the type of hospital with pavilions
gave way to that of the monobloc, more rational and better suited to modern needs, as emerged in the
reports presented in the crowded congresses of hospital architecture. The theories of functionalism and
hygiene of the early twentieth century introduced new paradigms of space. Natural light, air, the sun
become fundamental factors.

The new block type also responded to the hygienic requirements of exploiting the orientations of the
buildings according to the heliothermic axes. For this reason, the theme of the modern hospital
continually stimulated the experiments of many architects, who collaborated more and more with
medical directors. Numerous medical conferences were organized, and the international association of
hospitals was founded to discuss the new architectural typology. The principles of clarity, economy,
ordering of space, communications, use of the surface had convinced everyone to abandon the model
of the pavilions. For the new construction of buildings, as well as for the extensions of existing hospitals,
the solution of the mono-block type was preferred. The rationalization of the distribution elements in a
single building and the centralization of general services were the cause and consequence of the
improved efficiency of the services and a low operating cost. The abandonment of the pavilion type was
also motivated by the desire to no longer consider the pleasant aspects of tree-lined avenues and flower
beds, because the belief spread that the sicks were interested only in timely, wise and caring assistance
from doctors and nurses.
2.
The permanence of health clusters within urban morphology
In Italy, during the 1930s, therefore, the type of monobloc was established as a hospital building. But
nevertheless, the citadels for care continued to be imagined, conceived, built, modifying the face of
entire urban sectors, or often leading the way for the urbanization of areas that had hitherto been
isolated, also marking the start of vast programs of public utility, carried out even after the Second World
War. The cases of the Niguarda area with the new Maggiore hospital in Milan, or of the hill between
Arenella and the Camaldoli in Naples with the new modern hospital “XIII Marzo” later dedicated to
Antonio Cardarelli in 1943, as well as the Policlinico of Pavia are significant.
The construction of the Pavia hospital determines a moment of great growth in the city, both from an
urban, social and economic point of view. Promoted since 1902 by Camillo Golgi (Nobel Prize in 1906)
[19], an illustrious professor and scientist of international standing, the hospital complex of Pavia was
conceived in 1913 by the engineers Arnaldo Gardella and Luigi Martini and completed in 1932. Already
at its appearance it presented the most advanced technological solutions, with a typology now well
proven of the blocks. In the following years, other pavilions were built, whose construction was allowed
by the layout of the entire complex. The hospital was the result of a synthesis. In the initial discussions,
the possibility of creating two hospitals side by side was discussed, one for research entrusted to the
university, the other for the clinic, dependent on the Consiglio ospitaliero per la cura. The general clinical
hospital was thus created, with a comb scheme. The original project was revised by the engineers
Giuseppe Mariani and Leonardo Sala of Genio Civile.
232
The Policlinico gradually expands to the north, in accordance with the same initial forecasts, with a
series of successive buildings that follow one another after the war and in the following years. In
particular, it should be noted that a series of buildings immediately external to the original boundary of
the area are built by the University, with a substantial morphological and typological consistency with
respect to the pre-existing ones, but – by virtue of the different implementing body – triggering some
constraints on the mutual traversability of the area.
The building structure of the complex changes again at the beginning of the new century, with the
provision of a new building, developed according to the typological “plate and towers” scheme. A sort of
typological hybridization then happens, due to the inclusion a new building, morphologically and
typologically very different within a pavilion hospital. Since then, it was definitely unchanged, although
had progressively welcomed new architectures, each referable by compositional lexicon to specific
construction seasons, but intimately coherent, as far as the planovolumetric profile is concerned. With
its outline of 80 by 160 meters in plan and with a height of about 50 meters and a "W" shape, the new
building stands out as a new landmark in the context not only of the hospital complex, but more generally
in the city skyline. It is worth underlining here that the rationale of the new project was to concentrate in
a new high-tech building a huge amount of the beds distributed in the historic pavilions, now inadequate
in terms of systems, services and accommodation standards, leaving these volumes free for further refunctionalization. This medium-term perspective has then been implemented over time, so much so that
the conversion of one of the first two pavilions, that of medicine, into the new headquarters of the
University’s medical faculty is currently underway, with the creation of classrooms, departmental spaces
and library.
The complex of the New modern hospital of Naples was begun in 1928 on a project by the architect
Alessandro Rimini and ended in 1934. To create the citadel of care, the architect did not arrange the
many pavilions on the slope of the hill but had the area (over 300,000 square meters) transformed into
an esplanade [20]. As in Pavia, several specialist pavilions were later built. Articulated with more than
twenty pavilions, connected to each other by a road network and underground paths, the Neapolitan
hospital was a colossal work, extending over about 28 hectares [21]. The hospital was conceived to
carry out the tasks of health care for the sick, but also those of disease prevention and post-hospital
care. For this reason, the pavilions were intended for specialties (for the chronic, for maternity, for the
infectious, etc.).
The new hospital of Perdono, later Niguarda, was born instead to replace the old Ospedale Maggiore
[22]. It was designed by the engineer Giulio Marcovigi, assisted by Enrico Ronzani for the medical part,
and by the architect Giulio Ulisse Arata, for the architectural part. The works began in 1933 and ended
in 1939. The type of hospital pavilion still seemed the only feasible one, but following some American
models, it was thought that vertical hospitals were the most responsive to modern solutions. The events
that led to the construction of the hospital have been extensively reconstructed [23], [24]. In the course
of the discussions there was no turning towards the monobloc type, but rather the application of a mixed
solution. Beyond the final outcome, the story demonstrated the non-current nature of the pavilion type.
The cost of the areas within the cities, the advancement of construction techniques and hospital
technologies, as well as the need to rationalize everything and above all the conviction of being able to
“control” the contagion of diseases, have gradually led to abandoning the choice of typology of the
pavilions. Many pavilion hospitals were enlarged and renovated, such as in the case of the Umberto I
hospital in Monza. Built in 1896, in 1943 the hospital underwent a radical rethinking, with the elimination
of the pavilions, in favor of the construction of a single building block [25].
With the tragedy of the Second World War and the post-war reconstruction, the relationship between city
and care measured itself against the theme of social well-being as an inclusive sphere, and not linked only
to assistance to the sick. Strongly marked by the bombings, the cities were rethought, as well as rebuilt,
by the technicians as a whole. However, with few exceptions, the relationship of the city with the places of
care crystallized on architectural models of the past. No longer charitable but secular and scientific, care
in the city in the second half of the twentieth century was increasingly based on a system of services based
on the principle, called by the Anglo-Saxons patient-centered care, the one for which assistance was
focused on the person and no longer exclusively on an old-style hospital and care facility network. The
end of the twentieth century marked the heyday of modern hospital architecture, so much so that it saw
the definitive upheaval of numerous hospitals built in the nineteenth century. So much so that in some
cases it was necessary to safeguard the value of some hospital complexes. As Cor Wagenaar argued, it
is also necessary to keep in mind the changing ideas of health and care when evaluating the historical
value of pavilion hospitals, considered obsolete everywhere [26]. The lesson from typological history of
the pavilion hospital can help us understand whether the typological choice of the pavilions is still valid
today, especially if analyzed with the needs and paradigms of our contemporaneity. The pavilions
system still allows to give optimal answers, both for a small or a large hospital. Each pavilion can be
considered autonomous, and at the same time connected with the other departments. As in the past,
the isolation of the building – especially for general hospitals – becomes essential in the event of
epidemics, which are expected to increase in the future.

Conclusions: does the pavillion-based typology belong to cultural heritage or
may suggest possible strategies for the future?
As Hans-Bertram Lewicki wrote in 1964, even for an expert the task of establishing a hospital program
is always difficult, also, because the conception of a hospital starts from the situation of the moment and
from the forecast of the near future needs [27]. The issues concerning emergency interventions,
diagnostic medicine, rehabilitation and convalescence, since the 1960s, have been questioned,
perfecting and adapting the hospital to the medical needs, depending by the geographical context. This
is not the place to discuss the choices on the usefulness of one type or another, on the destination or
on the functioning of the pavilions. Rather, we are interested in understanding how the pavilion system
pluri-block can be taken into consideration again, given its heterogeneity. During the second half of the
twentieth century, up to the present day, a hospital is increasingly used for outpatient care. For this it
requires a dimensioning, a set of different structures, which can interact with the research institutes and
with the buildings where the therapies take place. The prospect therefore arises of reopening an
articulated debate on the prevailing hospital settlement strategies. As is well known, the paradigm of the
verticality of the hospital structure has already been refuted by the affirmation of structures with
horizontal development.
It is a question of re-discussing the guidelines in the organization of hospitals. The crowding of the sick
and the staff is no longer conceivable. One of the problems of the pavilion system were the connections,
which were replaced by vertical ones – with lifts, stretcher lifts, dumbwaiters, hoists – considered at time
cheaper, more effective, faster [28]. Into a mono-block, each floor was a closed unit in itself, which could
connect to the others if necessary. This typological organization showed its limits when the same
problems due to the epidemics of the past occurred. The disadvantages of the pavilion scheme
encountered at the time are now overcome. The questions posed by contemporaneity about our
microbiome are broad. The human being can be understood as a mobile ecology, which forms an infinite
flow of different species of germs, bacteria, viruses. Columina and Wigley questioned the role of
architecture – hospital or otherwise – which must host the human organism [29].
The social and health impact of the pandemic, which is still underway, will prompt a significant rethinking
of approach, including in the health sector. Even regardless of the individual emergency solutions, which
the various hospitals have resorted to in emergency conditions, it is believed that it may be appropriate
to develop a reflection on newly built, modular, streamlined, highly prefabricated and industrialized
structures to be set up in relatively short times, characterized by high degrees of internal distributive
flexibility, which can be dedicated to hosting specific and potentially infectious categories of patients.

towers 2012.
This is not the place to discuss in detail the peculiarities of these structures from a specific distribution
and technological point of view, but it remains clear that they will be pavilions, of variable dimensions
depending on the degree of specific functional complexity (eg. hospitalization only, or only intensive or
sub-intensive care units, or all of these). With the aim also of reviewing the man-made rules to protect
the community health during unexpected disease outbreaks or epidemics [30], the generating principle
of the type of hospital with pavilions, based precisely on the paradigm of physical separation and monofunctionality of the building, will therefore return to affirm itself in the debate, obviously reinterpreted in
a hybrid perspective and made consistent with its cohabitation with structures existing hospital and
exercise. Beyond some theoretical and philosophical considerations, the attention to a typology of the
past – such as the pavilion type – also makes us reflect on the theme of health citadels that still exist
and that can be considered, not only as a cultural heritage to be safeguarded but also as a still optimal
solution against the spread of viruses.
