history
The Beissel von Gymnich family provided around 8,000 Reichsmarks in 1889 to purchase land and build a hospital. The foundation stone for today's Cardinal Frings House was thus laid. From 1890 to 1891 the property was built as a monastery (St. Joseph's House) and the parish gave the sisters of the Order of St. Vincent transferred by Paul . It also served as a kindergarten and orphanage. Thanks to a foundation from the von Oppenheim family, an extension was added in 1919. In 1921 the Vincentians moved out and were replaced by Franciscan sisters . The Franciscan Sisters of the Holy Family ran the house until 1968.
