Trudeau Sanitarium was established in 1885 and grew to be the preeminent treatment center for tuberculosis in the country.

The “cure” for tuberculosis, as developed by Dr. Edward Livingston Trudeau, involved rest and long hours sitting outside on a “Cure Porch” breathing the fresh mountain air. With the advent of antibiotics in 1957, the Sanitarium ceased functioning as a medical treatment center and was converted to other uses.
