Bikur Holim Hospital, Medical heritage site in Ge'ula neighborhood, Jerusalem, Israel
Bikur Holim Hospital is a medical facility in Jerusalem's Ge'ula neighborhood with neo-classical buildings that blend modernist touches. The site contains several connected structures housing different medical departments spread across multiple floors and wings.
The hospital was founded in 1826 in the Old City and relocated to its current location in 1924, where it operated as an independent institution. Later it became part of a larger medical network, expanding its reach and capacity.
The hospital became a gathering place for the Jewish community, where medical care connected deeply with religious life and practice. Its spaces still carry this identity, visible in how the building was designed to honor both healing and faith.
The site is accessible on foot and well connected to the city's transport network, making it easy for visitors to reach. The buildings are mostly accessible for people with mobility needs, with elevators and clear pathways throughout the complex.
The maternity building comes from a former German medical station dating to 1894, its original structure still standing today. This historic layer shows how the institution absorbed different phases of its city and made them part of its own story.
