The uniform changes too
Compare the cut, material and insignia of two periods, and ask what function or rank becomes visible. Clothing also tells you about freedom of movement and hygiene.
Instruments and care practice
An instrument gains meaning through the action, the user and the patient. Read the captions carefully and avoid medical conclusions outside the historical context.
Storage depot instead of a permanent gallery
New donations keep the collection changing. Open-depot days give access to storage and selection, not necessarily to a fully chronological museum.
Before you go
No weekly schedule: only a published list of dates 11.00–14.00 or a group booking. The announced open day of 12 September 2026 was cancelled.
