In 1949, with the accession to the throne of Prince Rainier III, a service of pediatrics was created: "The house Rainier III".

The Government refounded the Hospital in September, 1958 with the opening of the Polyclinic, the new hospital complex was renamed "The Princess Grace Hospital Centre", in honor of Princess Grace of Monaco, always committed with humanitarian projects, of solidarity and health.
