Happy 100th birthday, Strong Memorial Hospital! On January 4, 1926, Strong officially opened its doors. These images show Strong's exterior construction, original entrance, and an elevated view of the original lobby looking toward the reception desk and the front entrance.

Throughout this year, we’ll be celebrating a century of service to the Rochester community while looking ahead to the next 100 years of care, education, innovation, and impact.

2025 was filled with major milestones! Most notably in September, the School of Nursing and the School of Medicine & Dentistry both turned 100!

A century later, we celebrate how our roots shaped modern medicine, trained generations of leaders, and expanded care of the highest quality across our region and beyond.
