滬尾偕醫館 & 淡水禮拜堂

加拿大長老教會傳教士馬偕於1872年抵達台灣淡水，1873年租用民房創立北台灣第一所西醫院——滬尾醫館，1879年運用捐款建立新的醫院，即**滬尾偕醫館**。1883年清法戰爭時滬尾偕醫館曾救助大量傷兵。1901年馬偕過世後醫館曾暫時停診。1912年，馬偕抵台40週年，馬偕馬偕紀念醫院於台北落成，滬尾偕醫館才功成身退。 Canadian Presbyterian missionary Dr. George Leslie Mackay arrived Tamsui, Taiwan (then Hobe, Formosa) in 1872. In 1873, Mackay established the first hospital of Western medicine in northern Taiwan, the Hobe Hospital, in a rented house. In 1879, using donations Dr. Mackay established a new hospital, the **Hobe Mackay Hospital**. During the Sino-French War in 1884, lots of wounded solders were brought here for treatment. The hospital temporarily suspended service after Dr. Mackay passed away in 1901. In 1912, the 40th anniversary of Dr. Mackay arriving Taiwan, the Mackay Memorial Hospital is established in Taipei, and thus the Hobe Mackay Hospital finally ended its primary mission.
