Hietzing hospital

Hietzing Hospital is a medical facility in Vienna's 13th district spread across ten specialized pavilions on a large park area. The complex offers various medical departments including oncology, tumor surgery, and maternal care in separate buildings.

The hospital was founded in 1907 under Mayor Karl Lueger as Kaiser-Jubiläums-Spital and represented Vienna's shift from private to municipal healthcare. This establishment was part of the city's broader modernization of public services.

The chapel within the complex features bronze sculptures and stained glass windows that provide a space for reflection. Patients and visitors can use this area for quiet contemplation during their time at the facility.

The facility is directly accessible via tram lines 60 and 62 and sits on a park-like grounds that are easy to navigate. The complex is well-signposted, making it simple for visitors to find individual pavilions.

The grounds were originally designed with extensive greenery to support patient healing and recovery. This park-like landscape with its walkways and open spaces between buildings remains a distinctive feature of the site today.
