The Klosterneuburg geriatric center was one of three nursing homes run by the Vienna Hospital Association that are not located in Vienna and at the same time one of six homes in Klosterneuburg ( Lower Austria ).

history

The oldest building of the Klosterneuburg geriatric center was built in the 17th century and served first as a spinning mill from 1766 and later as a barchent and lace factory .

After the civic hospital of the city of Klosterneuburg was housed here in 1853, the so-called new building pavilion was added in 1869 and it was converted into an asylum.

On the initiative of Julius Tandler and Cardinal Friedrich Gustav Piffl, the Meidling women's hospital moved to Klosterneuburg to the newly created Klosterneuburg sanatorium for sexually ill women and girls , which was cared for by sisters from Caritas Socialis .

Until 1926 the sanatorium had its own fire department . This disbanded itself after the management forbade it to go out to fire in Höflein on the Danube .

Between 1934 and 1944, the aftercare department for venereal diseases, an old people's home and the work center for girls of the municipality of Vienna - educational center for girls, were located here .

From 1957 the home was managed by Caritas Socialis as an education and retirement home and as a special department for sexually ill women. Since 1971 the administration has been carried out by the municipality of Vienna as a nursing home, which was renamed the Geriatric Center Klosterneuburg of the City of Vienna in 2001 .

In 1995, the signed Vienna Mayor and Governor Michael Häupl and the Lower Austrian provincial governor an agreement in Vienna - should have its supreme bodies in the new state capital the province of Lower Austria Sankt Poelten embarrassed - that has accrued to him half ownership of the Lower Austrian Landhaus in the Herrengasse the province of Lower Austria transmitted.

As compensation for this transfer of ownership, Vienna received its ownership shares on from the state of Lower Austria

The corresponding purchase agreement was signed on February 20, 1996.

The Klosterneuburg geriatric center was moved to Vienna in October 2015, to the Rudolfsheim-Fünfhaus nursing home.
