De Wever-Ziekenhuis, Former hospital complex in Heerlen, Netherlands

The hospital building stands at the intersection of Henri Dunantstraat, featuring a multi-wing structure constructed in the late 1960s architectural style.

Frans de Wever established the initial hospital in 1904 with twenty beds to serve the growing mining community and local population of Heerlen.

The facility changed its name from Sint-Josephziekenhuis to De Wever-Ziekenhuis in the 1970s, reflecting the broader societal shift toward secularization in healthcare.

The hospital merged with other regional medical facilities in 1992 and 1996, evolving into part of the current Zuyderland Medical Center network.

Princess Beatrix officially inaugurated the new hospital building on June 14, 1968, marking a significant expansion of medical services in the region.
