All that remains of a mediaeval hospital and alms house, the Maison Dieu Chapel lies on Maisondieu Lane in central Brechin. Founded in 1256 by William de Brechin, part of the south wall and a fragment of the east wall of the hospital's chapel still stand showing examples of finely detailed mouldings around the doorways and windows. A piscine can be seen in the south wall. The hospital seems to have still been operational beyond the Reformation, perhaps into the 17th century. Today, the chapel is maintained by Historic Scotland.
