Abstract     Background. Author describes the history of General Hospital Maribor from its foundation (1799) to the beginning of World War ll. In 1799 the magistrate of the town Maribor issued a memorandum regarding establishment of a town hospital in the renovated building of the town hospice, providing space for 24 patients. The work of the hospital was carried out in the former hospice building until 1855. 26 beds were added in the period between its establishment and eventual relocation. The last two decades of the hospital 's operation at the original location were marked by the assiduous work of the town's physicist, Dr Anton Kuker In the first half of the 19th century, the population of Maribor rapidly grew as a consequence of the construction of the Southern Railway. The city authorities therefore purchased the Prosenjak family villa in the Magdalena suburbs and relocated the hospital to it in 1855, providing 28 room for 110 patients. For a whole century, the care of patients was taken over by the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul. The hospital was soon admitting over 1000 patients a year the most common complaints being pulmonary catarrh, gastritis and fever In 1872, when the Master of Surgery, Feliks Ferk, joined the hospital, the internal, medical, and the "external" surgical departments were formed. Although medical studies were not easily accessible, there was a number of Slovene physicians working in the hospital and the town in that period. In the last decades of the 19th century, the hospital was often renovated and enlarged. The infrastructure (telephone, water supply system, heating lighting) had also been modernized by World Warl In 1914, the first X-ray apparatus was purchased. Between the wars, the hospital's development was stepped up by the recruitment of the Slovene physicians Ivan Matko, Mirko Černič, Janko Dernovšek and Hugon Robič.

Summary     Izhodišča. Leta 1799 je mestni magistrat izdal okrožnico o ustanovitvi mestne bolnišnice v tedaj znova prenovljenem poslopju mestnega špitala, kjer je bilo poslej prostora za 24 bolnikov. Mariborska bolnišnica je v špitalskem poslopju delovala do leta 1855, v obdobju od ustanovitve do selitve pa je pridobila dodatnih 26 postelj. Zadnji desetletji delovanja bolnišnice na prvotnem naslovu je s svojim prizadevnim delom zaznamoval mestni fizik dr. Anton Kuker. Prebivalstvo Maribora je v prvi polovici 19. stoletja hitro naraščalo, predvsem zaradi gradnje južne železnice. Mestna oblast je zato kupila Prosenjakovo vilo v Magdalenskem predmestju, v kateri je z letom 1855 pričela delovati mestna bolnišnica z 28 sobami za 110 bolnikov. Nego bolnikov so za celo stoletje prevzele sestre usmiljenke reda Sv. Vincencija Pavelskega. V bolnišnico so kmalu sprejemali več kot 1000 bolnikov letno, najpogostejše bolezni pa so bile pljučni katar, gastritis in vročica. leta 1872, ko se je v bolnišnici zaposlil magister kirurgije Feliks Ferk, sta se dokončno ločila interni "medicinski" in "eksterni" kirurški oddelek. Kljub pomanjkanju možnosti za izobraževanje je v tem obdobju v bolnišnici in v mestu delalo že precejšnje število slovenskih zdravnikov. V zadnjih desetletjih 19. stoletja so bolnišnico pogosto prenavljali in širili. Do prve svetovne vojne se je modernizirala tudi infrastruktura (telefon, vodovod, ogrevanje, razsvetljava). Leta 1914 je bolnišnica dobila prvo rentgensko napravo. Za razvoj bolnišnice med obema svetovnima vojnama so bili pomembni prihodi slovenskih zdravnikov Ivana Matka, Mirka Černiča, Janka Dernovška in Hugona Robiča. Iz prvotnega eksternega in medicinskega oddelka so se osamosvojili interni, kirurški, dermatovenerološki, ginekološko-porodniški in infekcijski oddelek, rentgenski zavod in prosektura ter pljučni odsek, ustanovljen je bil tudi oddelek za ušesne in očesne bolezni.
