The Rothschilds in Frankfurt endowed many hospitals, schools and other institutions in the city. The charitable Foundation of Wilhem Carl von Rothschild (1828-1901) and his wife Hannah Mathilde (1832-1924) was particularly active.
In 1903, Mathilde von Rothschild (1832-1924) established a children's hospital on Roderbergweg in Frankfurt. A neighbour on the Roderbergweg - one of the most pleasant parts of the city - was the Georgine Sara von Rothschild Hospital, named after her daughter who died young, aged just 18 in 1869. Mathilde's daughter, Adelheid (1853-1935), continued to provide for the children's hospital after her mother's death, supporting a number of beds and paying for repairs to the building. The fruit and vegetables for the hospital were supplied from the the family estate in Frankfurt, the Villa Grüneburg. The hospital, which treated Jewish children, was Aryanised before the Second World War.
