title: [Environmental dependencies, architecture and psychiatry: is the asylum back?].
abstract: From the time of the asylum as an "instrument of healing" to the present day, history has shown the importance of architecture in the design and organisation of psychiatric care. It manifests itself in many different ways, from the organisation of the therapeutic area, the typologies of the care facilities, to the relationship with the town, the area and nature. There is a close link between the care facility and the town.
