history
The Schelfstadt, originally the Schelfe , since 1349 also Neustadt , has developed as an initially independent place since the 11th century. In 1705 it received city rights. A later building regulation prescribed the eaves and the height of the houses.
The necessity of a larger hospital meant that the Marien-Frauen-Verein, which had been based on Schelfmarkt 1 since 1895, acquired the adjacent parcels in Röntgenstrasse and parts of the garden area of Schelfmarkt 2 (today green spaces / playground). The two- and three-story 19-axis Marien Hospital with 50 beds was built here by 1914 according to plans by Gustav Hamann . It had a high basement, a dominant three-storey entrance risalit and initially two further side elevations. The southern hospital rooms had a view of the quiet inner courtyard. Initially, the injured from the First World War had to be given priority .
In 1926 the German Red Cross , into which the Marien-Frauen-Verein was absorbed in 1922, took over the hospital and acquired additional properties on Röntgenstrasse. After the residential buildings were demolished, the hospital was expanded to the west by a further 12 axes in 1927/28 according to plans by the Schwerin construction company Carl Glatz & Sohn . Master builder Glatz added three slightly different projections to the complex. The former Marien Hospital now had 80 beds. During the Second World War the building was used as a hospital for wounded soldiers.
From 1945 a centralized health policy emerged in the Soviet sector and in the GDR . It took place the establishment of clinics , many medical specialties offered in a home for outpatient care, in order to pool resources. In December 1946 the first Schwerin polyclinic was set up here with over ten specialist departments and, after 1951, the dental department was added. In the 1960s the annual number of consultations was around 500,000. Inpatient care was gradually moved to the Werder Clinic and the hospital in the Lewenberg district . The polyclinic was in use until 1990. The building became the property of the city of Schwerin. From 1990 to 2002 various resident doctors had their practices here.
In the building complex today (2020) the Median Klinik Schelfstadt as a rehabilitation clinic , practices and group practices etc. a. for radiology , psychiatry , psychotherapy and addiction medicine as well as for dentistry.
