The end of the 18th century was marked by a significant event for the capital - Prince Golitsyn bequeathed funds for the construction of a hospital, which the city really needed. The funds for its construction were left by the prince after his death, and the will indicated that they should be spent on the construction of an institution “pleasing to God and useful to the people.” The proceeds from the sale of a unique collection of paintings, to the collection of which Dmitry Mikhailovich devoted most of his life, were invested in construction. In addition, 850 thousand rubles and profits from two estates that once belonged to the prince were added here. It should be noted that in those days this money was very large, and it was more than enough to organize a medical institution.

Already on July 20, 1796, the cousin of the deceased, fulfilling his last will, began construction of a future hospital on Bolshaya Kaluzhskaya Street. For this purpose, a plot of land was purchased in advance and a building project was drawn up. Construction began according to the project of the famous Russian architect Bazhenov. And after his death, a new project manager was appointed. The architect Kazakov did not experiment and the building plan became traditional for that time. central part buildings for patients, outbuildings for doctors and medical staff, a front courtyard - everything led to the fact that the hospital would truly become the main decoration of the capital city.

On the summer day of July 22, 1802, the hospital hospitably opened its doors. The chief physician, by general recognition, was the outstanding surgeon, professor at Moscow University E. O. Mukhin. He successfully headed the new medical institution. Since the hospital was originally intended to treat all segments of the population, regardless of their religion and nationality, a year after its opening Chief physician canceled payment for treatment. The exception was the serfs - for them the service remained paid. Thus, it was brought to life last will Prince Golitsyn about the charitable, non-profit nature of the foundation of the institution.

In 1832, the country's first paramedic school began operating within the hospital's walls. For a long time it produced the best nursing staff. In 1868, the Maternity Hospital began its activities as part of the Golitsyn Hospital. And in 1876, an outpatient clinic began operating, where patients came for consultation. We can say that the beginning was made of the opening of clinics that still exist today.

Already in the next century, 1919, the hospital merged with the 1st Gradskaya. It was founded by Prince Golitsyn’s brother, Dmitry Vladimirovich, in 1832 using city funds. This was the first time that a medical institution was built and maintained by a city.

In 1866, with the assistance of the city authorities in the person of Prince Shcherbakov, who at that time held the post of mayor, the 2nd city hospital began to function. In honor of the 50th anniversary of the famous surgeon Pirogov, 48 of the 240 beds were renamed “Pirogovsky”, and the building itself where they were located began to be called Pirogovsky. At the beginning of the 20th century, in 1914, clinics for venereal and skin diseases, called Lyubimovskys, were included in the hospital buildings.

After the Second World War, in 1959, all four institutions - 1st and 2nd City Hospitals, Golitsynskaya and Lyubimovskaya - were united into one medical institution, named after the famous surgeon City Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after N.I. Pirogov. The institution provided not only medical treatment, but also educational function. Within its walls the formation of famous professors, doctors, scientists, such as F.A. Rein, M. A. Marcus, N. K. Bogolepov, N. F. Lezhnev, N. A. Lopatkin, O. V. Rutkovsky, A. D. Ado, E. I. Gusev and many others.

The mission of the Russian Federation is of great importance in the work of the hospital. Orthodox Church. From the moment the foundation was laid, the work of the temples located on the territory of the institution did not stop. Since 1794, the Church of St. Demetrius, the oldest church building in the hospital complex, has been welcoming believers. Already in 1990, the temple returned to the Russian Orthodox Church.

The First City Hospital is a symbol of faith and help to those in need. The initial charitable mission of the medical institution, voiced by Prince Golitsyn, is still relevant today. This is a place where everyone will find help in matters of health and faith. Located in the very center of the capital, the complex is probably known not only to local residents, but also to city guests. This holy place cannot be ignored.

City Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after N.I. Pirogov (the official name of the medical institution) is located in the very heart of Russia - Moscow. The first city hospital was founded back in early XIX century, namely in 1802. This year she turned 212 years old.
At first the hospital was used as a hospital for the poor. Construction was carried out using money bequeathed by Prince Dmitry Mikhailovich Golitsyn, a famous Russian diplomat and philanthropist. The design of the building belongs to the architect Kazakov, who also placed a temple inside the hospital itself. At first glance, a rather strange decision, but as it turned out, it was quite justified. The architect, therefore, wanted to especially emphasize the profession of a doctor - his spirituality and closeness to God. A little later, the first city hospital was created on the basis of Golitsyn’s hospital, and literally a few years later - the second city hospital. Currently, these three hospitals form a single medical complex - City Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after N.I. Pirogov.

The first city hospital is the only medical institution built at the expense of the city of Moscow itself, unlike other medical institutions that had many sponsors as philanthropists and members of the imperial family.

Even during the time of the Golitsyn hospital, there was a charter according to which only poor people could receive treatment in the hospital for free, and wealthy citizens had to pay for their treatment in the clinic.

Operation of the hospital during the Great Patriotic War was carried out unscheduled. The hospital itself housed a hospital for seriously wounded soldiers. They accepted all Muscovites who suffered during the fighting.

For many decades, the First City Hospital has served as the clinical base of the Russian State Medical University named after N.I. Pirogov and two more medical schools cities. This primarily provides the hospital with a replenishment of staff and affects the results of treatment. The staff of this medical institution consists of at least 4 thousand people. Every year, the hospital treats more than 40 thousand inpatients.

Previously, Moscow hospitals were created either with private donations, like the neighboring Golitsynskaya, or with funds from the imperial court. Therefore, the new hospital began to be called Gradskaya, that is, city hospital.

The initiator of the creation of Gradskaya was the then Moscow Governor-General. One day, while inspecting the theater construction work on Teatralnaya Square, he noticed people crowding around a peasant cart. There was a body in it. The man died without receiving any help. For Moscow at that time, this was an ordinary incident. But the Moscow Governor-General did not think so. By the way, he was also Golitsyn, like the founder of the Golitsyn hospital.

Another Golitsyn and sixty bricks

Permits to establish a new hospital Moscow Governor General Dmitry Vladimirovich Golitsyn got it from the emperor very quickly. We formed a committee and took special initiative in doing so physician Christian Loder, awarded by the emperor for the construction of hospitals during the War of 1812. Architect Osip Ivanovich Bova assigned the project.

And in 1828 the city bought this land from Anna Orlova, and the Metropolitan blessed the foundation stone of the building. Sixty specially made bricks were laid at the base of the foundation, on which the names of all the honorable persons who were present at the foundation of the building were embossed in gold.

On October 14, 1833, Gradskaya received the first patients. According to the principle “All the poor and disadvantaged of both sexes will be accepted and treated without money, except for those who have wealth.” The majestic building with a solemnly decorated facade and the dome of the Church of Mary Magdalene became one of Beauvais’ best works.

Evenius

The construction of the hospital was interrupted by a cholera epidemic. Therefore, it is not by chance that its first chief physician was Alexander Egorovich Evenius. Graduate Faculty of Medicine Moscow University, after completing his studies he was left for practical exercises at the Mariinsky Hospital. Then, having tried himself as a regimental doctor in a horse regiment, he decided that he “knew too little in the field of medicine” and retired.

He visited all university cities in Germany, Switzerland and Holland, worked in clinics in Frankfurt, Mainz and Paris, got acquainted with medical affairs in London. Returning to Russia, Evenius began to study ophthalmology, and for his work in this field he was declared the highest favor.

But in 1830, a cholera epidemic that came from Poland spread throughout Russia. Among the doctors sent from both capitals to provincial cities, suffering from complete medical helplessness, was thirty-five-year-old Alexander Egorovich. After the “quick and successful end to the epidemic” in Saratov, Evenius was sent to Atkarsk, then to Nizhny Novgorod, and finally returned to Moscow.

Merger

Over time, the City Hospital began to be called the First, since the Second appeared nearby in 1866. In 1959 they merged. And the neighboring Golitsyn hospital lost its independence and became part of the First City Hospital almost immediately after the revolution. Now all this is City Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after N.I. Pirogov at the address: Leninsky Prospekt, building 8.

Using the example of City Clinical Hospital No. 1 named after. Pirogova N.I. A look from the inside.

2nd City Hospital

In 1866, the city government, led by Prince Alexander Alekseevich Shcherbatov, purchased from the bankrupt manufacturer Titov a manor house located along the Kaluga road and two premises of a cloth factory, connected by the Church of the Icon of the Mother of God of the Sign. In a house along the street, a debtor's prison was organized, which Muscovites called "Tity".

Remember N.A. Ostrovsky - you will go to the “tits”, you will come from the “tits”. According to hospital legend, the painter Savrasov, the creator of the painting “The Rooks Have Arrived,” died in a debtor’s prison. One of the two premises of the cloth factory was made, and on March 22, 1866, a hospital for typhus patients was opened there, later called Shcherbatovskaya, and then 2nd Gradskaya.

The building of the former debtor's prison was rebuilt and adapted into a hospital ward. Currently, there is a well-equipped consultative and diagnostic center there, which is highly respected by the residents of Moscow. Treatment and examination there are free. The former buildings of the cloth factory have been restored and refurbished, and now house one of the most modern surgical complexes.

In the center of the building is the Church of the Icon of the Mother of God “The Sign”, it is active.

On the territory of the 1st City Hospital there is another legendary building, opened by personal order of V.I. Lenin in 1924.

According to the hospital legend, his story is as follows: V.I. Lenin was wounded by the Socialist-Revolutionary E.E. in 1918. Kaplan, and two bullets remained in the leader’s body. On April 23, 1922, Professor V.N. Rozanov, together with other colleagues, successfully removed the bullets from the leader’s body. Professor Rozanov was very loved and respected in the Ulyanov family, they loved it when he visited them and were sure that with his arrival “everything would be fine.” In gratitude for the assistance provided, at the request of V.N. Rozanov and the order. IN AND. Lenin, a surgical building was built according to a German design, in which a urological clinic was located, which is still working there.

The body is traditionally decorated with columns and masks, and inside it is surprisingly practical, economical and very convenient for patients and medical staff.

In 1919, the Golitsyn Hospital was connected to the 1st City Hospital. In 1959, the former Shcherbatovskaya, that is, the 2nd City Hospital, was annexed to them. Now the 1st City Hospital occupies an area of ​​22 hectares on Leninsky Prospekt, and all three hospitals are connected to it. Currently, the hospital with 1000 beds is one of the largest Moscow hospitals. The hospital provides medical care around the clock to all sufferers brought to the hospital and those who come on their own. The hospital has the most modern methods diagnostics and treatment and a huge team that loves and knows their job.

So, the seed of mercy sown by Dmitry Mikhailovich Golitsyn in 1801-1802. has sprung up beautifully in the form of three hospitals, and the work of mercy and charity continues to remain effective, energetic and effective.

And to the families of Prince Golitsyn, and Prince A.A. Shcherbatov, and to donors for the construction of the First City Hospital, and to all unknown donors, and to everyone who has maintained the hospital for two centuries, and to those who work in it - Low bow and heartfelt gratitude from all of us living today!

Centuries pass, wars rumble, revolutions and perestroikas take place, and the beauty of these marvelous buildings, the powerful sound of the dome of the Golitsyn Hospital, and the harmonious melody of this turn, and the harmonious sound of the ensemble of the First City Hospital warm the soul and delight the heart.

We are confident and know that the hospital will continue to live according to the will of God and stand firmly in what was commanded on the walls of the temple: “A temple in the name of the blessed Tsarevich Demetrius and a hospital with a hundred beds for poor and suffering humanity,” in which what was given 200 years ago will be observed charter: “All the poor and disadvantaged of both sexes will be accepted and treated without money, except for those who have wealth”.

The end and glory to God!
