Addenbrooke's Hospital is a large teaching hospital in Cambridge. It was founded in 1766 in Trumpington Street with £4500 from the will of Dr John Addenbrooke, a fellow of St Catharine's College. In 1976 the hospital moved to its present premises in the south of the city.
The hospital is run by the Addenbrooke's NHS Trust, which is not a part of the University. However, there is close co-operation between the two organisations, and the University's medical school is also based on the Addenbrooke's site.
