Heiliggeistspital
Heiliggeistspital, Church building and former hospital in Freising, Germany.
The Heiliggeistspital is a church building and former hospital in Freising with a special structure that combined both functions within one space. The structure displays typical features of Bavarian medieval architecture with stone walls and an interior chapel.
The building was built in the late Middle Ages and served the care of the sick and poor of the city. Its purpose changed over the centuries, but the original structure has remained intact.
The building shows how religion and medical care were closely linked in medieval times. Visitors can see today how the space served both purposes at once.
The monument is located in central Freising and is easy to reach. It is worth taking time to observe the architectural details both from the outside and from the inside.
The building was one of the first of its kind and shows a solution to a problem that many medieval towns faced. The combination of chapel and sick ward under one roof was innovative for its time.
