Karlshospital, Cultural heritage monument in downtown Kassel, Germany.
The rectangular building measures 48 meters in length and 15.6 meters in width, featuring additional modern floors with a flat roof design.
Built between 1720 and 1721 as Zuchthaus am Zuchtberg, the structure initially functioned as a reform institution for children and social outcasts.
During the Seven Years' War, French forces occupied the building and transformed it into a temporary hospital to treat wounded soldiers.
Following extensive renovations from 2008 to 2009, the building now contains office spaces and a restaurant in its restored historical structure.
The facility served as a protective custody center during the 1930s before suffering substantial damage in World War II.
