Burnside Hospital

[2] Burnside Council suggested building a community hospital in August 1943, as part of its Post-War Reconstruction and Development Committee; it was to cost 100,000 pounds and to remain as a memorial to honour Burnside's war dead.

A local resident of Toorak Gardens, Otto George Ludwig von Rieben, offered his property, a mansion called Attunga, for use as a community hospital free of charge in 1944.

In April 1949 the first conversion of Von Rieben's home was complete, and the hospital was caring for 21 patients.
