10 years Spitalstrasse

29 January 2021

On 29 January 2011, the UKBB, Switzerland's oldest children's hospital, moved into its ultra-modern new building on Spitalstrasse. Corona does not allow us to celebrate the anniversary properly. But we can still be amazed. The UKBB has hung pictures from times long past throughout the hospital. They can now also be admired here.

On 29 January, the UKBB has been at the Spitalstrasse site for ten years. Quite a few employees witnessed the move from the charming old building on Römergasse and from Bruderholz. Others perhaps simply marvelled at the façade, which is still impressive today, when they passed the new UKBB building at that time. One thing is certain: the move to the centre of the city was a huge leap into a new era.

To mark the anniversary, posters with pictures from our photo archive have been put up in various places around the UKBB, taking us back to times long past. Some arouse curiosity, others make us marvel - or smile.
