The Sigmaringen District Hospital is a hospital in Sigmaringen sponsored by the Sigmaringen District Clinics .
history
The hospital goes back to a foundation of the Sigmaringer Princely House , which led to the establishment of the Hohenzollern State Hospital between 1841 and 1846. As the Fürst-Carl-Landesspital or later the Fürst-Carl-Landeskrankenhaus, this facility existed until 1979, albeit with changing responsibilities. With its state annexation to Prussia in 1850, responsibility was transferred from the principality to the Prussian government, which in 1874 transferred management to the regional association of the Hohenzollern Lands .
In 1963 the administration of the hospital foundation was transferred to the district of Sigmaringen and thus became the district hospital. The current district hospital was built from 1974 to 1979, and in 1979 the old foundation went out when it went into operation.
Prince Carl State Hospital
The building in classical style on the Mühlberg in Sigmaringen was opened as a state hospital in 1847 after a three-year construction period. It was a hospital for various purposes, including psychiatry, from 1847 to 1979 . In 1912 three doctors, 22 nuns and a few male nurses worked in psychiatry.
- time of the nationalsocialism
Between 1934 and 1942, more than 100 men from all over Hohenzollern and neighboring towns were subjected to forced sterilization . In 1940/41 90 of the 213 patients in the psychiatry department in the Grafeneck and Hadamar killing centers were murdered. They were evacuated on December 12, 1940 and March 14, 1941.
post war period
In 1979, eight chief physicians, ten senior physicians, 29 assistant physicians and several medical interns were employed. The new Sigmaringen District Hospital was built on Dettinger Berg in February 1974 and opened in February 1979. The old building was later converted into a district office, which it still houses today. The psychiatric care department of the hospital and the DRK district association are housed in the outbuildings Annahaus and Vinzenzhaus.
In 2005 a memorial stone was erected for the murdered patients.
