The Forest Clinic

Waldkliniken Eisenberg redefines hospital design through “hospitecture”—a fusion of hotel comfort and medical functionality. Surrounded by forest, the circular, local wood-clad structure enhances healing through natural light, ventilation, greenery, and acoustic warmth. Staggered two-bed rooms offer privacy, while shared verandas encourage community. Energy efficiency is achieved through green roofs and innovative thermal systems. Staff wellbeing is prioritised with dedicated relaxation areas. With 85% of local workforce, the clinic supports regional growth while setting new standards in sustainable, patient-centred healthcare environments.
