In 1898 the Berlin State Insurance Institute laid the foundation stone for a lung sanatorium on the outskirts of Berlin.
Within 30 years, architects and master builders created an ensemble on an area of approx. 200 hectares that has found and is recognized far beyond the borders of Germany.
Today there are still more than 60 listed buildings that withstood two world wars and have lost none of their former charisma during their use as a military hospital by the Soviet armed forces and in the years thereafter.(Source: hkw-beelitz.de)

Hopefully the Beelitz sanatoriums will remain "preserved" for a while and also be accessible 👌👌
