KÖRPERWELTEN – BODY WORLDS Berlin Bodyworlds Weekend

Understanding anatomy

A visit to the KÖRPERWELTEN Museum provides a deep insight into the human body. The functioning and interaction of the individual systems and organs are explained in an easily understandable way.

The plastinates on display provide a detailed view of muscles, bones, tendons, nerves, blood vessels and organs. Life-like poses demonstrate how our bodies are structured and how the systems on display interact during everyday activities. In addition to fascinating insights into the human anatomy, questions relating to health also play a central role.

Not only the interactions between physical processes, consciousness and emotions become clear, but also the fragile structures inside the body that are worth protecting and therefore also the causes of common illnesses. It is not just about imparting anatomical knowledge, but also about encouraging a conscious perception of one’s own body and an examination of one’s own lifestyle.

Plastination

BODY WORLDS Berlin was the first in a series of exhibitions created by Dr. Gunther von Hagens, who invented the process of plastination in 1977. Plastination is the process where real bodies are preserved for scientific research and medical education. While his work has been copied countless times, his own work is still the most spectacular.
