history

From 1927 to 1930, Brother Eustachius Kugler built the St. Pius and St. Vinzenz hospitals (at that time still known as the men's building and the women's building). In 1932 a nursing school was opened. Both hospitals survived the war years without damage, despite several air raids on the Messerschmitt GmbH aircraft factory in the immediate vicinity .

From 1945 to 1954 the hospital was confiscated by the American occupation forces. From 1954, after the necessary repairs, both houses were run by the Brothers of Mercy again.

From the mid-1970s the hospital was modernized. First, a nuclear medicine department and a radiation therapy department were established. Following this, the clinic was expanded to include today's 19 specialist departments and 5 clinical departments.

In October 1988 the hospital moved into the public eye when the incumbent Bavarian Prime Minister Franz Josef Strauss was admitted here after a collapse and died two days later.

In 1995 the central building that connects the two houses of St. Pius and St. Vinzenz was built . St. Pius was renovated until 1998 and the geriatric rehabilitation department was housed there. With St. Rafael , a new ward block with 165 beds was built in 2000.

In 2001 the St. Hedwig Clinic (a women's and children's clinic with 230 beds) was opened by the Blue Sisters of St. Elisabeth integrated into the Brothers of Mercy Hospital. This will be expanded into the university clinic. In 2002 the Dr. Opitz taken over and incorporated into St. Hedwig .

In October 2008 the new clinic for plastic, hand and reconstructive surgery opened. In December, the extension of the central building followed in which central functions of the hospital such as chief physician's offices, specialist departments and data center were combined. The new operational guard station is also located here.

At the end of October 2015, after an aerial bomb was found, the entire hospital had to be completely evacuated - a major organizational challenge (never before has a hospital of this size been evacuated).

In November 2013 the Protestant Hospital Regensburg merged with the Hospital Barmherzige Brüder. As a “replacement building” for the Evangelical Hospital, the Paul Gerhardt House was built on the site of the Barmherzigen Brüder Hospital. A center for geriatric medicine with acute geriatrics, a geriatric early rehabilitation and an acute geriatric day clinic were established there. Most of the patients were moved from the wards of the Barmherzige Brüder Hospital in January 2017 - again a logistical tour de force.
