Dortmund's healthcare leasing market is defined by an unusually strong institutional anchor. Klinikum Dortmund is the largest municipal hospital in North Rhine-Westphalia and the second-largest in Germany, with roughly 1,422 beds, around 4,600 staff and full municipal ownership. Its central Mitte campus and the northern site form a maximum-care backbone that generates durable demand for clinic-adjacent medical-office space, MVZ units and ancillary services. Alongside it, Knappschaft Kliniken Westfalen (the Knappschaftskrankenhaus Dortmund, around 451 beds) and the confessional St.-Johannes-Hospital provide additional acute-care anchors and their own referral ecosystems, giving the city a diversified base of hospital-backed leasing demand. On pricing, Dortmund does not have a separately published medical-office rent or care-occupancy series from the major brokers, so the figures here are explicitly indicative or national proxies rather than city-specific prints. Indicative MVZ and medical-office rents for clinic-adjacent space sit in the low-to-mid teens EUR/sqm per month, and nursing-home occupancy is referenced against the broadly stable Germany-wide level around the high-80s to 90%. We label these as proxies in line with the no-hallucinated-numbers rule; the defensible city-specific facts are the institutional anchors and the active new-build programme rather than precise rent levels. The supply pipeline is led by Klinikum Dortmund's phased new clinical building, with the dialysis department the first to relocate into the new block and further departments to follow. This modernisation, together with planned upgrades at the Knappschaft and confessional sites, is gradually adding compliant, modern clinical and ancillary floorspace. Demand drivers are structural: an ageing Ruhr-area population, the ongoing shift toward ambulatory and outpatient care, and KV Westfalen-Lippe-licensed MVZ growth all expand requirements for medical-office and clinic-adjacent space, while NRW care regulation pushes older stock toward modernisation or obsolescence. For occupiers and landlords the leasing thesis is defensive. Space anchored to Klinikum Dortmund and the other established acute providers benefits from sticky, demographically supported demand and strong institutional covenants, making clinic-adjacent MVZ and medical-office assets resilient income. The principal risks are operator-level: hospital-reform and funding uncertainty, care-operator financial stress, and the cost of bringing older assets up to regulatory standard. Confidence is moderate-to-low on the metrics, which are proxies, but the qualitative picture of a dominant municipal anchor underpinning steady healthcare leasing demand is well supported.

care occupancy: 90 % indicative nursing-home occupancy, Germany-wide proxy (no Dortmund-specific figure); medical office rent: 14 EUR/sqm/month, indicative MVZ/medical-office rent (Dortmund estimate, label indicative).
