Abstrakt: Health architecture, which has been shaped at the intersection of many disciplines (both historically and currently), should predominantly serve a suffering human being. It should also facilitate the reconstruction of relations, ones weakened by illness, with the healthy world. Former and contemporary hospitals are completely different institutions. The humanisation process in hospitals has permanently changed the way we look at them, not only as “healing machinery”, but as an integral part of an urban architecture. Today’s architects and urban planners face new challenges. Globalization has transformed the process of creating architecture, allowing its authors more flexibility. This resulted in a decrease in functional and aesthetic rigor and made the experienced hospital facility in the city space. The development of medicine causes the evolution of views on the methods of treatment, which results in changes of the entire functional and special programs of these buildings; over the years, they have been involved in creating social awareness and the identity of the places where they were built. The question is still relevant today: what should be done for historic health architecture to meet the requirements of modern treatment, and what will be the future of historic hospitals in the urban space of a contemporary city?
