The Rothschild Hospital, Vienna, was the hospital of the Israelite religious community in Vienna. It was named after its founder Baron Anselm Salomon von Rothschild, and, was in his day, one of the most modern hospitals in the city. It served the Jewish community in Vienna from 1873 to 1938. During the period of National Socialism it remained open from 1938 to 1943 and was the only hospital in Vienna where Jewish doctors could work and where Jewish patients could be treated. After the end of the Second World War, it was used as a warehouse for Jewish displaced persons, and later as a reception centre for Jewish refugees from Eastern Europe. The building, built according to the plans of the Viennese architect Wilhelm Stiassny, was demolished in 1960.
