German Hygiene Museum
German Hygiene Museum, Medical museum in Dresden, Germany.
The German Hygiene Museum in Dresden is a building with modern design dedicated to the human body and health. Its spaces contain models, objects, and displays that explain how the body is structured and functions.
An entrepreneur founded the museum in 1912 after a major exhibition in Dresden sparked widespread interest in medical topics. The building and its collections grew over time into an important place for sharing knowledge about the human body.
The museum presents human anatomy in ways that visitors can directly understand and connect with their own bodies. The displays link scientific facts to everyday health questions that matter to people of all ages.
The museum is located in central Dresden and is easy to reach on foot or by public transport. Visitors should set aside a few hours to explore the exhibitions at a comfortable pace.
A famous display shows the internal organs and structures of the human body in transparent and realistic form. This exhibition remains the most memorable experience for many visitors to the museum.
