Accouchierhaus Göttingen, Historical medical building in Göttingen, Germany
The Accouchierhaus features early classical architecture with a grand staircase characterized by multiple curves, spirals, and rounded elements throughout its interior design.
Built between 1785 and 1791, this structure functioned as a university maternity hospital where medical students received practical training in obstetrics under professional supervision.
The building now houses the University of Göttingen's Musicology Department, maintaining a collection of over 1000 musical instruments for research and educational purposes.
Located at Kurze Geismarstraße 1 corner Hospitalstraße, the building remains generally open to visitors interested in its architectural and historical significance.
Medical records from its time as a maternity hospital document the experiences of unmarried mothers who received free care in exchange for participating in medical education.
