Several floors of exhibits chronicle the amazing, sometimes gory, history of medicine and surgery. Exhibits include an 1873 apothecary, a turn-of-the-century dental office and a radiology room with X-ray machines from the early 20th Century. The museum even has a copy of the death mask of Napoleon. Temporary exhibits often focus on cutting-edge medical photography and computer-imaging techniques and art inspired by medical science.
