In addition to wards and common hospital facilities such as laundry and sterilization units, the Uniklinikum Aachen houses educational and research facilities including specialized clinics, theoretical and clinical institutes, lecture halls and training rooms.
The hospital's exterior has extensive visible pipes, which give the building an industrial appearance reminiscent of an oil refinery.
