Medical History Collections

Short facts

Insights into over 100 years of hospital history - the collections show medical equipment and applications in an authentic Art Nouveau setting.

The exhibition is located in the Bad Gottleuba Health Park - one of the largest Art Nouveau ensembles in Germany. On display is the development of Saxony's first workers' sanatorium since its foundation in 1913.

Equipment, instruments and furniture from everyday hospital life can be seen on around 700 square meters over three floors. Many come directly from the Gottleuba facility and were used for decades.

Some exhibits seem strange from today's perspective - as if from another time. Others are fascinating due to their technology or craftsmanship.

The exhibition is complemented by audio stations on the history of the sanatorium and the water treatments of the past. Special exhibitions and guided tours offer additional insights.
