The Bundeswehr Hospital Hamm was one of the former 15 Bundeswehr hospitals , existed as an office from 1967 to 2007 and was located at Marker Allee 76 in Hamm .
history
After the Wehrmacht had erected large barracks in Hamm in 1934 at the beginning of the armament, a military hospital was missing to round off the garrison , which was completed in 1938. After the hospital survived the nights of bombing in Hamm, it was mainly former Soviet prisoners of war that were treated there after the war .
At the end of 1945 the parish of St. Agnes leased the hospital as a temporary solution and set up the St. Marien Hospital II with 400 beds because the two inner-city hospitals could not be used due to war damage. But in 1958 the community canceled the lease. The vacant building was then taken over by the newly founded Bundeswehr in 1960. It had already moved into the Paracelsus barracks opposite for the 7th medical battalion , and later the 22nd medical regiment. After a thorough renovation, the Hamm Bundeswehr Hospital was opened in 1967.
After reunification and the agreed reduction in troops, the Bundeswehr hospital in Hamm also became obsolete. On June 30, 2007, the hospital was closed. The demolition of the building began in December 2010. In its place has been the Hammer Campus of the Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences since 2014 .
