Hospital Penkun, Architectural heritage hospital in Penkun, Germany

The Hospital St. Georg features a single-story brick structure with a continuous corridor separating four rooms on each side of the building.

Founded in 1291 as a leprosarium, the hospital experienced a fire in 1712, underwent restoration in 1714, and received a major reconstruction in 1754.

The building ownership was distributed among the church congregation, city authorities, and castle lords, reflecting the social structure of historical Penkun.

The former medical facility stands directly in front of the Stettiner Gate, along the main trade route that connected the region to Stettin.

Following renovation plans in 2021, the historic hospital building transforms into an all-day school facility while maintaining its architectural heritage status.
