Mossman District Hospital, Spanish Mission style hospital in Mossman, Australia.
The Mossman District Hospital features multiple connected single-story pavilions with deep verandas, concrete facades, and expansive tropical gardens surrounding the buildings.
Construction began in 1930 under architects Hill & Taylor, marking a shift from Port Douglas's makeshift medical facility to a government-supported district hospital system.
The facility represents Queensland's early twentieth-century healthcare transformation, reflecting the implementation of the 1923 Hospitals Act for rural medical services.
Located at Johnston Road, the hospital continues to provide acute inpatient care and residential aged care services to the Mossman community and surrounding areas.
Among Queensland's public hospitals, this facility stands as the only example incorporating Spanish Mission architectural elements with concrete structures designed for cyclone resistance.
