The City of London also contains St Bartholomew's Hospital (Barts) which was founded in 1123 by Rahere. On a pilgrimage to Rome in 1115, Rahere fell ill and a vision of St Bartholomew told him to founded a hospital. Barts is now a specialist cancer and cardiac hospital and is the oldest hospital in the UK still on its current site.
