history

On November 19, 1858, the day of St. Elisabeth , the deaconess house Elisabethenstift was inaugurated. It emerged from the revival movement at that time , which led to the establishment of several Protestant deaconess houses . The foundation of the Elisabethenstift goes back to an initiative of the theologian and court preacher Ferdinand Bender . The foundation was finally made possible by a donation of 10,000 thalers by Elisabeth of Prussia , the princess of Hesse-Darmstadt. The first place of activity was a house in Erbacher Strasse in Darmstadt, which served as the mother house of the sisters and from December 2, 1858 also as a hospital. In 1885 the hospital was expanded to include a women's and children's hospital. In 1892 a ward for men and a “sick ward” (isolation ward) were set up by adding a west wing. In 1909 the state recognition of the nursing school at the hospital followed. In 1930 the new building of a surgical clinic was inaugurated on Landgraf-Georg-Straße. During the Second World War, British planes destroyed during heavy air raids on Darmstadt on the night of 11/12. September 1944 most of the buildings in the city. The little damaged Elisabethenstift became a refuge for the population and provided up to 3000 people with food every day for several weeks.

After the construction of a new building for the medical clinic, the psychiatric clinic was opened in 1979. In 1979 the hospital had 387 beds. On January 1, 1995, the hospital and nursing school were spun off from the "Elisabethenstift Darmstadt, ecclesiastical foundation under public law" and continued as a non-profit limited liability company called Evangelisches Krankenhaus Elisabethenstift gGmbH . The main shareholders of the "Krankenhaus-GmbH" are the Elisabethenstift Darmstadt and the Evangelical Community and Dean's Association Darmstadt. On August 2, 1998, the Geriatrics Clinic opened in a new building on Erbacher Strasse. The number of beds rose to 412.

On June 26, 2002, the Evangelical Hospital Elisabethenstift gGmbH was a founding member of Agaplesion gAG and Agaplesion became the majority shareholder. The main building was expanded by two levels in the following years and the operating theater was rebuilt and renewed in 2006. In 2008 a center for hospice and palliative care was opened . In 2011 the hospital was renamed Agaplesion Elisabethstift and with around 400 beds it was the second largest hospital in the city after the municipal clinic in Darmstadt .

building

The former surgical clinic is a listed building . It was built in 1929/30 according to plans by the architects Georg Markwort and Eugen Seibert as an extension of the Elisabethenstift and has largely been preserved. An old building was integrated into the new building in the left wing of the building. The elongated building has four-storey wings, which are closed off at the corners with semicircular protruding, three-storey bay windows. The expressionistically designed central building that towers above the wing structures is striking. Today the building is used as a medical center by resident doctors and cooperation partners of the hospital.

In 1979 the building from 1930 was expanded to the west with a new building for the medical clinic, which was topped up by two floors in the early 2000s.
