At which hospital did Zelda Fitzgerald die in 1948?

Zelda Fitzgerald died at Highland Hospital in Asheville, North Carolina, in 1948. She was killed on March 10 when a fire spread through the hospital, where she was being treated for severe mental illness and was awaiting further treatment.

Zelda had spent much of the 1930s and 1940s in psychiatric institutions, including facilities in Switzerland, Baltimore, and Maryland. She was admitted to Highland Hospital several times and returned there in late 1947. At the time of the fire, she was sedated and locked in a fifth-floor room; the blaze spread rapidly through the building, killing Zelda and eight other women.

Her death is sometimes confused with her earlier hospitalizations at Johns Hopkins Hospital or Sheppard Pratt Hospital, and with her treatment at Les Rives de Prangins in Switzerland. Highland Hospital was the location of her death, not merely one of the institutions where she had previously received care.
