Battle Creek Sanitarium in Battle Creek, MI by sctatepdx, via Flickr Old Hospital, Abandoned Asylums, Battle Creek, Old Buildings, Ghost Towns, Christian Books, Early 1900s, Real Photos, Family Vacation

My great grandmother, Rosabel Tenney, was the librarian at the Battle Creek Sanitarium for many years. The sanitarium was built in 1878 and some of the buildings burnt down in 1902. I'm not sure, if this postcard picture is part of the original or newer building. There were between 800-1000 employees with up to 1,000 patients. Here is some interesting info about it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_Creek_Sanitarium
