Essen University Hospital

Essen University Hospital  

This year, Essen University Hospital is celebrating a very special anniversary-100 years. Back in 1909, it took up its operation as the "Städtische Krankenanstalt" with only four clinics. Since then, the Hospital has continuously evolved, becoming a teaching hospital in 1963. As a maximum care hospital it is known today as the "Ruhr metropolis hospital". With 1,300 beds and 6,250 employees, Essen University Hospital treated 50,000 inpatients and 195,000 outpatients every year. With its many top modern clinics and other buildings, nearly three miles of roads, and 54 acres of land, the University Hospital is almost like a small city within the city.
