René Albert Antoine Marie Egger (14 September 1915 – 17 February 2016) was a French modernist architect. He worked with Fernand Pouillon from 1944 to 1953.[1] Over the course of his career, he designed many buildings in Marseille, including more than 150 university and school buildings.[2] He also designed the Hôpital Nord, known as "Europe's most modern" hospital when its construction was completed in 1959.[2]
