Psychiatry museum in the ZfP Reichenau

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Psychiatry Museum in the ZfP Reichenau is a museum about the history of psychiatry in Reichenau . It was founded in 2013 for the centenary of the house and is located in the Center for Psychiatry Reichenau (ZfP) on the second floor of the main building of the clinic. In particular, it deals with the history of the “Grand Ducal Baden Sanatorium and Nursing Home near Constance”, founded in 1913.

Medical instruments, clothes of doctors, nurses and patients as well as everyday objects, photos and eyewitness accounts are shown in the large hall. Old spindles and a loom belong to former occupational therapies. In the small room, the killing of patients in the Swabian castle Grafeneck is discussed. The special exhibitions included the exhibition “Illness and Healing of the Soul” (2013), edited by the historian Gert Zang, and “Psychiatry in the First World War” (since 2015).
