description

Summary

Significance: This building was constructed in 1924 as part of a general expansion of the facility. The dining room was on the third floor, with the auditorium filling the first and second floors. Kitchen, staff dining rooms, and dish washing facilities were also located in this building. The auditorium was different from other sanatoria auditoriums: "It can be used by both the ambulant and bed patients (rather an unusual feature, as usually the auditorium is in a detached building and can only be used by the up-and-about patients)."
Survey number: HABS MN-133-H
