St. Finbarr's Hospital
St. Finbarr's Hospital, Irish: Ospidéal Naomh Fionnbarra, is a care home for elderly people in Cork City, Ireland, on the Douglas Road. It traces its roots to the Cork Union Workhouse and Infirmary, designed by George Wilkinson and completed in 1841. A large three-storey block was added to the north of the site. The facility became Cork District Hospital in 1898 and later Cork County Home and Hospital. By ministerial order in 1923 it was designated to treat medical, surgical and maternity cases, and infectious diseases. Today it operates as part of the Health Service Executive (HSE).
