McGinnis Hospital is a former hospital in Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Founded by the Sisters of Mercy of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania in 1944 when they purchased the 1918 family mansion, the structure served as a hospital for the next 67 years and even included a pool. It was the smallest hospital in Pennsylvania.[1] It was closed in 2011, with plans to open an 8-room hotel in the building in July 2013.[1]
