[GER] Das Medizinhistorische Museum zeigt die Entwicklungen in Medizin und Gesellschaft seit Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Naturwissenschaftliche Methoden stellten die Medizin zwischen 1840 und 1890 auf ein neues Fundament. Neue Techniken erlaubten spektakuläre Einblicke in den menschlichen Körper.

Die Mikroskopie enthüllte die Struktur von Körperzellen und Krankheitserregern. Das Experiment in Labor und Klinik wurde zum wesentlichen Forschungsinstrument. Antisepsis und Narkose ermöglichten anspruchsvolle chirurgische Operationen. Wirksam wurden viele wissenschaftliche Errungenschaften für eine breite Bevölkerung erst, als die gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse ihr den Zugang ermöglichten. Der Kampf um sauberes Trinkwasser ist eng mit der Geschichte des UKE verbunden. Mutterschutz und Säuglingsfürsorge sind Errungenschaften der frühen Weimarer Republik.

[ENG] The Museum of Medical History shows the developments in medicine and society since the middle of the 19th century. Between 1840 and 1890, scientific methods laid a new foundation for medicine. New techniques allowed spectacular insights into the human body.

Microscopy revealed the structure of body cells and pathogens. The experiment in the laboratory and clinic became an essential research instrument. Antisepsis and anaesthesia enabled demanding surgical operations. Many scientific achievements only became effective for a broad population when social conditions made access possible. The fight for clean drinking water is closely linked to the history of the UKE. Maternity protection and infant welfare are achievements of the early Weimar Republic.
