Museum of Health Care and Nursing (MuGuK)

The MuGuK at the University of Applied Sciences displays rare artefacts related to training and professional nursing in the 19th and 20th centuries. It provides unique insights into the training over the past two centuries and shows the development and progress that has taken place. On display are textbooks, teaching materials, and training records from 1914 onwards, as well as professional clothing from different eras, which provides further evidence of the changes that have taken place. Curious objects used in various fields of nursing, such as surgery, paediatrics, anaesthesia, urology, and hygiene, demonstrate the evolution of the profession, as does the accompanying nursing documentation. These include forerunners of modern blood pressure monitors, an incubator for newborn babies from 1958, and a field hospital box from the Second World War.
