The St. Marien Hospital Bonn is an acute clinic in Bonn-Poppelsdorf . Since the merger with the St. Josef Hospital Beuel (2013), it has formed the left bank of the GFO Kliniken Bonn and has been operating as the St. Marien plant since then .

The St. Franziskus Hospital in the Bonn-Kessenich district (also known as the little monastery ), in which the psychosomatic department and psychotherapy are housed, is directly affiliated . As an academic teaching hospital , the St. Marien Hospital is also affiliated with the Friedrich Wilhelms University of Bonn .

history

The Franciscan Sisters of Eternal Adoration at Olpe had been working as kindergarten teachers in the conservation and sewing school for women in Poppelsdorf since 1881 . Three years later they also took over the management of the local toddler school after the superior Angela Uthmann had signed a contract with the then mayor Wilhelm Bennauer (1837-1918) for the annual amount of 600 marks. Needy Poppelsdorf families were cared for by them free of charge. The evangelical pensioner Rudolf Jung, who was greatly impressed by this, then gave the order the property on the Venusberghang along with a so-called construction penny of 6,000 marks. In 1890, construction of the St. Marien Hospital began, and the opening ceremony took place on March 25, 1892. The two side wings were added in 1896, the large St. Antonius wing was added in 1904.

According to plans by the architect August Scheidgen , the neo-Gothic chapel of the hospital to the west behind the main building was built in 1916 . At this point in time, the Marienhospital was already serving as a military hospital during the First World War for the second year . It was used as such after the end of the war from 1918 by Canadian and British occupation troops and from 1920 by French occupation forces. The latter vacated the hospital in January 1926. In the following February, conversions and extensions to the building complex were commissioned, which Scheidgen carried out. After the construction work was completed, the hospital was reopened on June 10, 1927.

The Lourdes grotto of the Marienhospital

In 1927, a Lourdes grotto made of Eifel volcanic rock was moved to the green space in front of the clinic, which had already been created on the site in 1914. The annual May devotions have been held there since 1983 .

A major fire in the main building on April 17, 1957 did not leave any irreparable damage thanks to the joint efforts of the Poppelsdorf municipal and voluntary fire brigade and many local residents who spontaneously helped.

On the centenary in 1984, the Franciscan Sisters were able to sum up that their order is the largest sponsor of hospitals in Bonn alongside the university. Since the Marienhospital was expanded into a modern obstetrics center in 1990, it has also been the first hospital in North Rhine-Westphalia to combine obstetrics and neonatal medicine under one roof.

The Förderverein eV St. Marien-Hospital has existed since 1997 under the direction of the Bonn journalist Bernd Leyendecker . The main activities of the association focus on the collection of donations , which are used to subsidize medical devices and training for nursing staff. Another focus is on in-house projects to support pediatric patient care.

Despite the clear differences between the business premises in Beuel and Poppelsdorf in terms of location, size and the respective professional focus, both houses saw the best opportunities for the future in a merger: without having to give up their independent character, they can since the official approval from 1 January 2013 by the NRW Ministry of Health and sharing their resources synergistically .
