Moulagenmuseum des Universitätsspitals und der Universität

Wax moulages were produced from 1850 onwards for the teaching and research of skin diseases. The three-dimensional replicas of diseased body surfaces surpass any other pictorial representation.

Moulages of skin diseases and surgical pathologies are on display in the museum. In addition to the eradicated smallpox and rare forms of syphilis and tuberculosis, everyday skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis are vividly depicted and supplemented with accompanying information.
