This article focuses on alcohol treatment centers within Polish territories until 1914. Hospital treatment for alcohol addiction began at the turn of the 18th century. The first facilities for alcoholics in Great Poland arose in Bojarowo and Kościejowa. Other facilities arose in Silesia and in Miechowice (1904) and then were relocated to Tarnowskie Góry. An alcohol addiction center was established in Poznan in 1907, and an outpatient facility/shelter for alcohol dependent patients became operative in Vilnius that same year. The psychiatric institution, Kochanówka, operated until 1914 near Łódź, offering therapy modeled on the Dutch outpatient institutions. In Galicia, there were three treatment facilities for the mentally ill, where also alcohol addicts were treated.
