    The building is breathtakingly beautiful. It's worth stopping here to admire it.

      The hospital was built in 1881–1883 by the Berlin company Gropius & Schmieden for 400 patients from the province of West Prussia. The complex included several buildings located on the road from Wejherowo to Bolszewo. 25 acres of urban forest and 160 acres of private land were donated for this purpose. It was the second modern plant of its kind in the province after Świecie. In 1893, the hospital was overcrowded, which was one of the reasons for building a psychiatric hospital in Kocborów.

      The plant's basic staff consisted of 12 people. The director until 1895 was Dr. Kraemer, the author of the first printed, very extensive report, a kind of chronicle and monograph of the plant from 1885. As part of the treatment, patients performed various works for the plant, mainly in horticulture and agriculture (35 ha of land), in including breeding. Pastoral care was organized in the facility, with daily prayers celebrated alternately by Fr. the parish priest from Wejherowo and the pastor from Reda.

      After the end of World War I and Wejherowo's return to Poland, in 1921 the Pomeranian National Institute for the Deaf and Mute was established in the former hospital buildings. Currently, they house the ICT Support and Naval Command Center (ul. Sobieskiego 277), the District Special Education Complex (ul. Sobieskiego 279) and the District Family Assistance Center (ul. Sobieskiego 279A).
