The Deutsches Medizinhistorisches Museum (German Museum of Medical History) is a museum of the city of Ingolstadt. The baroque building, in which the museum is housed, was built in 1723 for teaching anatomy at the Bavarian State University. It was the first new building for anatomical studies in the German-speaking world. During the course of the 500th anniversary celebration of the University of Ingolstadt-Landshut-Munich in 1972, the city of Ingolstadt acquired the "Old Anatomy" and opened in 1973 the first museum of medical history in Germany. The collection focuses on ophthalmological diagnostics, on otolaryngology, on clinical chemistry and on prints. The collection is constantly expanded to include twentieth-century medical material culture.
