Heilig-Geist-Spital, Medieval hospital chapel in Berlin-Mitte, Germany
The Heilig-Geist-Kapelle stands on a fieldstone foundation with a star vault ceiling, displaying medieval brick architecture in central Berlin.
First mentioned in 1272 through a baker's guild letter, the hospital complex provided care for the sick, elderly, and accommodations for travelers until 1825.
The chapel transitions from a religious sanctuary to a modern ceremonial hall, now serving as a formal venue for Humboldt University events.
Located at Spandauer Straße 1 in Berlin-Mitte, the chapel remains closed for general public visits but maintains its architectural presence.
The structure survived demolition plans in the early 1900s and functioned as a school cafeteria during the German Democratic Republic period.
