Hospital tradition

Relief Hufelandkrankenhaus

The Berlin architect and head of town planning, Ludwig Hoffmann (1852-1932), had a huge influence on the appearance of Buch with the hospitals that he built. Here is a short summary of Ludwig Hoffmann's hospital facilities in Berlin-Buch and their colorful history.

Waldhaus

Built as a tuberculosis sanitarium

Built: 1900 bis 1905
Area: 10.7 ha
Protected historic buildings: 4

The former Tuberculosis Sanitarium is certainly the most imposing of Ludwig Hoffmann's buildings in Buch. The castle-like installation with great open spaces serves to isolate the tuberculous patients from the general public and allows them to enjoy their stay there is an environment with plenty of fresh air.

The building has been vacant since 1992. Liegenschaftsfonds Berlin has put the property up for sale.
