This is a great place to see if you love the human body and have more the a few days to spend in Dresden. It is fun for all ages and is very interactive. Does have a lot of walking and stairs. There is something interesting for everyone.
Very old museum which to be honest was just boring. I guess if you're into body parts and illnesses you might find it entertaining but it needs some upgrading.
I didn't found the hygienic part, but this museum is very interesting. There are a lot of thing about the human body, diseases and stuff like that.Also, there is always some itinerant exhibitions. The day I was visiting the museum there were a exhibition about immigration in Germany and other about dancing. It has also a children's exhibition.Don't miss the mind game, is awesome!
We took a long walk along through traffic laden main roads to reach the museum which is in an unimpressive modern building. The exhibits were old fashioned and seemingly mainly aimed at children - we were almost alone pushing buttons and gawping at parts of the human body until we reached the area on relationships/ sexuality where there were so many teenagers we didn't really have a chance to follow the exhibits at all. A very odd experience. However, we had heard that there was an exhibition about immigration in Germany so made our way to the ground floor and entered a strange gallery of packing cases forming little cubicles with a mass of information and data obviously aimed at putting the record straight and helping to inform opinion. This was a brave attempt to air a very difficult subject and we congratulate the curators/designers for mounting such an exhibit. Go see it if it's still there - it's not "stunning" but definitely gets the old grey matter working. This lifts the rating from poor to good.
The cost for 1 adult is 7 Euros. If you are into learning about the body be prepared to spend at least 2 hours. Some of the exhibits are interactive. On the top was an exhibit but there was not much in English. Most of the other places in the museum had German and English.There is even a short film about a baby being born. If you are bringing children be aware of this. When I visited the special exhibit was Dance - moves that Move us. There is also a display on the Migration and Diversity in Germany Today. I found this very interesting.It is a short walk from the city centre.Lots of room for wheelchairs.There are audio guides available for free. in German, English, French, Polish and Czech.
It was MUCH better than I expected! it was a little hard for speakers other than German. NO OTHER LANGUAGES. Other than that it was great! Don't go there if you get grossed out! but do not let that scare you! I would like agree with Norm T with the lack of English
The museum has some detailed exhibitions about human body, some are pretty basic and out of date especially the one on nutrition, but some are modern and interactive. We particularly liked the animation of the style of walk of men and women, where you can set old, young person, tired, happy person, thin or fat person style of walk. However, we expected more modern hands on installations. The interactive part for children is interesting, but all texts are only in German unfortunately.
Even if this museum had some actual interesting things on display, it wouldnt be any good because there is barely any descriptions in English. Which is extremely disappointing because i considered Dresden a sort of international city.Me and my girlfriend looked at it as a waste of time and I recommend that you dont go there if you dont speak german.
We very much enjoyed this museum and its interweaving of historical background and the progression of displays mixing the history of the museum with contemporary health issues , such as Ebola, sexuality, and other topics. Definitely worth a visit.
