Fakultní nemocnice u sv. Anny v Brně, University hospital and research center in Old Brno, Czech Republic
St Anne's University Hospital is a modern medical center with more than thirty specialist departments, including cardiovascular, neurological, and oncology services. The facility combines specialized treatment with research and medical education in one integrated complex.
The facility originated in 1786 within a Dominican monastery in Old Brno before being relocated to its present location according to designs by architect Theophil Hansen. This relocation reflected the growing demand for expanded medical services in the city.
The hospital serves as a teaching institution closely tied to Masaryk University's medical school, where students and young doctors gain hands-on experience in multiple specialties. This role connects the facility to the broader medical education life in the city.
The hospital is located at Pekařská 664/53 and is fully accessible for visitors with mobility needs, as the buildings are designed to be barrier-free. Information about specific departments and their locations within the complex can be obtained at the on-site information desk.
Gregor Mendel, who later became known for his genetics research, worked here as a pastoral care provider in the mid-1800s following his theology studies. His time at this hospital was part of his varied life before he fully devoted himself to scientific work.
