Sanatorium

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heilstätte or Volksheilstätte is an outdated term for a specialist hospital that specializes in a certain disease or related diseases .

background

In the second half of the 19th century, numerous sanatoriums were opened in Germany and abroad. The operators were often charitable associations such as the Order of St. John and the newly established pension insurance companies . Special healing treatments were carried out in the sanatoriums. Pulmonary tuberculosis was a common focus . The stays in the sanatoriums, initially only affordable for upper classes of society, experienced a significant boom after the discovery of the tuberculosis pathogen in 1882. In order to enable the poorer sections of the population to take a corresponding cure, numerous associations were founded to support the construction of popular sanatoriums. Some sanatoriums were conceived as German public sanatoriums and should serve as models for other buildings. For example, the Sülzhayn miners' sanatorium was honored with prizes at the world exhibitions in Paris in 1900 and in St. Louis in 1904 .
