Hygiene

The Hygiene Museum might not be the best name for this exhibit. This name does no justice for what the museum has to offer. Located in Dresden, this interactive museum was perfect for us. It consisted of 5 rooms and a special exhibit. The five rooms ranged from the human body as a whole to specific sub-regions of the body. It even included a human sexuality room. We had our final assignment in which we were divided up into groups and had to present on each of the rooms. I was assigned the room on the transparent man and presented on one of the first x-rays machines ever used. Pretty sweet. The special exhibit was on medicine in war and displayed how war shaped medicine and vice versa. The city of Dresden was magnificent. Almost completely destroyed in the war, it was awesome to see a modern European city.
