Nestled on Liberty Island within the iconic Ellis Island complex, **the Ellis Island Hospital** stands as a powerful reminder of America’s immigrant heritage.
Once one of the largest public health facilities in the United States, this historic site played a pivotal role in shaping the nation’s identity during the peak immigration years from 1892 to 1954.
Today, it serves as a meticulously preserved museum where visitors can step back in time and uncover stories of resilience, hope, and determination.The hospital was originally built to screen and treat immigrants arriving at Ellis Island who were deemed unfit to enter the country due to medical conditions.
