Guided Story

Take a moment to admire the red brick facade that has stood here for over a century. This was once the Krankenhaus Lehe, a hospital that served the community from 1906 to 1976. Imagine the hustle and bustle of doctors and nurses caring for patients within these walls. After its time as a hospital, it became the Public Health Office, continuing its vital role in the city. If you look to your right, you can see the Leher Water Tower in the distance, another historical landmark. This place is special because it beautifully combines historical architecture with modern urban life. It's like taking a journey through time while exploring the city from here.
