Hiking
The hospital was built in 1770, and a charitable institution where the sick were cared for and travelers were given shelter. The first building was erected outside the city limits under the name Sint-Jansgasthuis or Noordgasthuis in the 13th century, but when this building was destroyed by the beggars, it moved to its current location.
