It was inaugurated in the year 2000 due to the joint endeavours of Mrs. Pia Branzeu, great grand-daughter to the renowned surgeon Karl Diel, who conducted his activity at the town hospital and Jimbolia Town Council. The house offers a view upon the personality of the late dr. Karl Diel (1855-1930), medicine science in Banat by 1900 - 1930 and life at Jimbolia by early 20th century. Karl Diel is the organiser of Jimbolia Hospital, where he was appointed manager in 1924. There 50,000 surgical interventions were performed, all of them successful, during a time when surgery was in its early days. King Ferdinand awarded him the Star of Romania, commander’s rank for his medical and civic act...ivity. A statue of this personality stands in front of the Town Hall, and a bust stands in the precinct of the town hospital, that bears his name.
