Has anyone ever heard of Friedrich Wohlwill? Right here at Haus G, his legacy lives on. This building, part of the Asklepios Klinik St. Georg in Hamburg, isn’t just another hospital wing. It’s a poignant reminder of a life unjustly cut short. Haus G is officially named the Friedrich-Wohlwill-Haus. It stands in memory of Prof. Dr. med Friedrich Wohlwill. He was the former head of the Pathological Institute. He worked at the hospital between 1924 and 1933. Tragically, he was driven out due to racist persecution. A plaque near Haus G tells this story, a small but powerful testament to his contributions and the injustice he faced. The building itself, as seen in the photograph from 2019, is a modern structure, a testament to the ongoing evolution of the hospital complex. It’s a sobering thought, contrasting the modern architecture with the dark historical events that the name commemorates. Haus G serves as a vital part of the Asklepios Klinik today, providing essential medical services. But it also serves as a silent reminder of a past we must never forget. Wohlwill’s name, etched onto this building, ensures that his story, and the lessons it teaches, remain a vital part of the hospital’s history.
