UKE - Universitätsklinikum Erlangen

The idea for this cache was born once a day as an foreign car muggle asked me for the way to the university's hospital. In the capital of the Franconian Medical Valley things are slightly different. Therefore there is no way to the university's hospital, the city is the hospital. And now it's time to explore it.

• To mind conflicts with the clinic's security service, I strongly recommend not to do this cache at nighttime. Weekends are no problem at daytime.
• All wanted places are accessible for visitors without problems. The answers to stage 5 and 7 aren't more than 10, the answer to stage 9 isn't more than 30 meters away from the entrance - not more! You needn't to enter examination rooms or even patients accomodations.
• Cachers with contagious diseases do please stay at home and get well soon before you start doing this Multi.
• Usually doormen and cleaning staff do know everything. But at this cache they will not be able to help you.
• Dogs and mobile phones are forbidden in all clinics.
• Multiplication and division before addition and subtraction.

Since August 2008 the new surgical clinic is build here. It's planned to be completed in the year of 2016. At Stage 4 you already got to know, what has to be exspected from such projects. Predict the year in which the new building will actually be completed. Take the final digit (completion 2017 = 7, 2018 = 8, 2019 = 9 , 2020 = 0, 2021 = 1, ...) and

• multiply by 3
• add 3
• multiply by 3 again
• take the sum of the digits = J

You can get a preview of the new patient's accommodations here: N 49° 35.930  E 011° 00.657

You need'nt enter any room!

In this buildung the chief physician of the Erlanger Heil- und Pflegeanstalt (= Hupfla, approximately "Cure and Care Establishment" meaning mental home) once was living near to his patients. Typically for former psychiatric hospitals the Hupfla was built in an amply way. From here you can still follow the remains of the establishment's wall until you reach the brook Schwabach. There the historic north-wing can be found at the so called Schwabachanlage.
Because patients could not be cured at those times, physicians were looking for ways to calm them down. This succeeded among other things by giving them drugs, engaging them in handcraft and household, taking hot baths and wide runouts.
The Hupfla was the distric of middle franconia's mental home, later it was sharing the buildung with the university's hospital for neurology and psychiatry. Todays successor is the Klinikum am Europakanal, the university's psychiatric hospital can now be found in the Kopfklinik. During the National Socialism in line with the so called "euthanasia program" Action T4 patients were brought through other mental homes to killing establishments and murdered there. How many stumble-stones (= L) do remind here substitutionally for murdered patients?
