On a site overlooking the Dlinza Forest in an area steeped in Zulu history, the Eshowe Hospital has occupied its present site since 1957.  Its predecessor, the Queen Victoria Hospital served the inhabitants of the town and the surrounding areas from the late 1890s and was run by predominantly part-time medical staff and a team of nurses until the opening of the “new” facility.  The fact that the present 460 bed hospital has, with relatively minor modifications, adequately served a largely rural population (estimated to be around 300 000 today) over almost five decades is a tribute to the planners who conceived the upgraded facility in the middle of the last century.
