After a competition in 1971/72 the hospital was built in several phases with the nurses flats completed in 1976, the main structures in 1982 and the final stages in the late 1980s.

Demolished.

The demolition plans were preceded by a review process by the Federal Monuments Office, which lasted more than three years. In 2022/23, they classified the building as not worthy of protection as a listed monument. 

After the clinic had already been relocated to a new building at a different location, demolition of the brutalist hospital building began in 2025 and is expected to be completed in autumn 2026. A Maggie's Center, an outpatient clinic, a company kindergarten and a university site are to be built on the site of the old hospital.

This building was included in the red list, published in our exhibition catalog SOS Brutalism: A Global Survey (September 2017). After a status review on February 3, 2026, it was reclassified in the online database from red (endangered) to black (demolished).
