Rittberg-Krankenhaus, Former hospital and architectural monument in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany

The hospital building features a three-wing layout with plastered masonry, a mansard roof, and neo-baroque architectural elements combined with Art Nouveau details.

Established in 1904 as Berlin's first homeopathic hospital, the facility was initiated by the Berlin Association of Homeopathic Physicians and benefactor Carl Ferdinand Wieseke.

The structure houses a memorial site with a communal grave containing forty World War II victims, including civilians and patients from the hospital.

The building now serves as the headquarters for the German Red Cross Federal Association, following extensive renovations completed in 2000.

The hospital design by architect Theodor Thöns resembles a castle rather than a medical facility, reflecting early 20th-century institutional architecture.
