EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the entrance to Hirsch Hospital - Temporary Hospital No. 14, located in Thessaloniki, Greece during World War I. Circa 1916, this image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the historical significance of this site. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonika or Salonica, was a major Allied military and civilian center during the First World War. The city became a refuge for thousands of refugees, wounded soldiers, and civilians who were displaced due to the conflict. In response to the overwhelming number of casualties, temporary hospitals were established throughout the city. Hirsch Hospital No. 14, named after its founder, Dr. Max Hirsch, was one of the most prominent temporary hospitals in Thessaloniki. Established in 1915, the hospital was initially intended to accommodate 500 patients but soon grew to house over 2,000. The hospital was renowned for its advanced medical facilities and compassionate care, making it a beacon of hope and healing during a time of great turmoil. The gates of Hirsch Hospital No. 14, depicted in this photograph, symbolize the entrance to a place of refuge and healing. The intricate design of the gates, with their ornate ironwork and elegant arches, stand in stark contrast to the harsh realities of war that lay beyond. The image invites us to reflect on the resilience and compassion of those who worked and were treated at the hospital, as well as the strength and determination of the people of Thessaloniki during this tumultuous period in history.
