Intro
Selected works from the Dr. Franz Käppeli Collection.
The Museum of Medical History Books Muri presents selected works from the collection of Dr. Franz Käppeli. The broad spectrum of books on display (1480 to 1800) ranges from natural history encyclopaedias to herbal books and specialist medical literature.
The interactive touchscreens allow visitors to actively browse through the works and make their own discoveries, regardless of their previous knowledge.
Recipes for the production of herbal remedies and instructions for surgical procedures are just as much a part of the natural knowledge of the time as unicorns or dragons. The exhibition provides a realistic insight into the culture and thinking of earlier centuries.
