The Hospital of the Holy Spirit in Lübeck, Germany, is a brick Gothic complex founded in 1286 that originally served as a hospital before evolving into a retirement home and day-care facility for the elderly. Built during the high medieval period in the distinctive brick Gothic style characteristic of northern Germany, the structure reflects Lübeck's prominence as a major Baltic trading center. Now designated a cultural monument, the complex stands as a testament to medieval charitable institutions and the architectural heritage of the Hanseatic League.
