The Institute for the Care of Mother and Child - WWI & II - Prague, Czech Republic - Field Hospitals on Waymarking.com

The Institute was founded before World War I. The building was designed by arch. prof. R. Kríženecký and was opened after four years of construction in 1914, shortly before the beginning of the World War I.

Part of the sanatorium was enabled to use by the Red Cross during the World War I and became a military hospital. After the war, there were the 2nd Surgery and 2nd Gynecology Clinics in the premises of Sanatorium as well as X-Ray Diagnosis Department and Physical Therapy and Orthopedic Departments.

Germans confiscated the Institute during World War II and changed it into a military hospital for SS troops. The building was damaged by bombardment during the Prague May Rebellion in 1945. After that, there was a repatriation hospital for prisoners freed from Nazi concentration camps that suffered from tuberculosis.
