Hundertwasser House in Grugapark

Close to the University Hospital, on the edge of Grugapark, an extraordinary, colourful house was built, as if from another world: the Ronald McDonald Hundertwasser House. The Ronald McDonald House Essen is a temporary home for the families of seriously ill children receiving treatment at Essen University Hospital.
