We present a short history of anatomopathological museums in Europe. In the first part we provide an insight into the beginnings from the Renaissance until the middle of the 19(th) century. We assess forms of acquisition and exhibition of the specimens concerning the steps of medicine and pathology development. The prototypes were curiosities of nature collections starting in the 15(th) century. The next milestone collections focusing on the human body were those of Frederik Ruysch in the Netherlands (176 century). In the 18(th) century teachers in surgical and anatomical schools realized the educational power of such collections. Anatomopathology as a separate medical discipline was developing in parallel. At that time museums such as the one established by Honore Fragonard in Paris, the Hunterian in Glasgow and Narrenturm in Vienna were created. At Polish universities in Cracow and Vilnius, such museums were beginning to emerge at the beginning of the 19(th) century. Anatomopathological collections became more popular, gathering specimens: osteological, dry and mummified, as well as wet embedded in alcohol, formalin, and mysterious mixtures. They provide a wealth of important data for scientific, medical, historical and even ethical areas, as well as methods and concepts of conservation and even recreation of human body parts.
