In 1796, the Duce of Altenburg, Ernst II and his minister Thmmel ordered measures to improve the conditions of the poor, established health care for the poor, and a hospital was build (1802). The promising young Dr. Wilhelm Hagen became the first director of this charitable event. Unfortunately, his early dead in March 1800 abruptly ended his great devotion to poor relief. His library of 560 volumes was donated to the "Directorium des Armenwesens" as a gift for the hospital of Altenburg, and formed the basis for this interesting library, which counted in 1856 about 1600 titles. Only 5 copies in the WorldCat, chiefly in German libraries.
