School hospital, Minnesota School for the Deaf, Faribault, Minnesota
The school hospital of the Minnesota School for the Deaf in Faribault, Minnesota, was originally called the Infirmary. It was constructed in 1894, and was the only building on campus designed by the deaf architect, Olof Hanson. The infirmary was previously in the North Wing of Mott Hall, but it was moved to an isolated location for health safety reasons. It provided separate wards for ordinary and contagious patients. It was razed in the summer of 1973.
