Berlin is a city rich in history, with its vibrant present often built on the remnants of a complex and, at times, troubling past. While iconic landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag attract millions of visitors, there are quieter sites that hold equally profound stories. One such site is the memorial dedicated to the former Columbia-Haus, situated on Columbiadamm near the expansive grounds of the former Tempelhof Airport.

When I visited the Museum of the History of Medicine, or Musée d’Histoire de la Médecine, as the French call it, I was surprised to take a unique peek into the evolution of medical practices and instruments, spanning centuries of innovation and discovery. This is a phenomenal place, located on the second floor of the historic École de Médecine building (now part of Paris Cité University, tucked away in the lively Latin Quarter of Paris, and it’s definitely worth paying a visit.
