A visit to the BODY WORLDS Museum provides deep insight into the human body. Functions and interactions 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 interact during everyday activities.
In addition to fascinating insights to human anatomy, various topics relating to health also play a central role. The interactions between physical processes, consciousness and emotions become clear. Fragile structures inside the body are revealed, showing why our body needs protection and a healthy lifestyle to help avoid 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 lifestyle.
