Konya's Numune Hospital Dates Back to the 19th Century

Konya, one of the leading health cities in Turkey, has revealed that the foundation of its Numune Hospital dates back to the Ottoman Empire. Investigations have revealed that one of the most prestigious health hospitals in the Ottoman Empire was in Istanbul and the other was in Konya. It was learned that the Gureba Hospital in Konya is today's Numune Hospital.

Konya Numune Hospital emerged as Konya Gureba Hospital, which provided the highest quality healthcare service in the final years of the Ottoman Empire.

The same hospital became Numune Hospital during the Republic Era, and today, this hospital continues to serve at its best in the heart of the city.

The reason for sending the wounded to Konya Gureba Hospital during the war is that, during the Ottoman era, the two highest-quality hospitals were located in two places: 1- Istanbul, 2- Konya. Since Istanbul was under occupation, they were being sent to Konya.

Konya Gureba Hospital later lost its function during the Republic era and served for years as the former building of today's Numune Hospital. Subsequently, a new modern hospital was built in the area of Numune Hospital, and today, the highest quality healthcare service continues to be provided to the people of Konya by the government.
