Zakład Psychiatryczny w Owińskach, Psychiatric facility in Owińska, Poland

The medical complex stands north of Poznań, incorporating multiple buildings spread across extensive grounds near the Warta River banks.

Founded in 1838, the facility operated until 1939 when German forces took control and executed approximately 1,000 patients during World War II.

The institution represents a significant chapter in medical history as the first psychiatric care center in the Wielkopolska region of Poland.

The abandoned buildings remain closed to visitors, with only external views possible from the surrounding public roads.

The facility later served as SS headquarters, and in 1943 became a subcamp of the Gross-Rosen concentration camp system.
