The building today is an outpatient clinic. It used to be a hospital maintained by the Chevra Kadisha (burial society in the Jewish community). On January 12, 1945 tragic events took place in the building.
A memorial plaque commemorating the events has been placed inside the building. The text on the memorial plaque reads:
„The patients and self-sacrificing doctors together with the nurses and helping staff members became martyrs of Jewry on January 12, 1945. God of Mercy, comfort our aching hearts and heal the sick soul of humanity .”
