Special Exhibition: Between Wellness and Madness – Dr. Levinstein’s Maison de Santé

Founded in 1861 by Dr. Eduard Levinstein, the Maison de Santé in Neu-Schöneberg was a private clinic of international renown. This exhibition at the Schöneberg Museum explores its history as a pioneering facility for nervous and emotional disorders. Visitors will see how traditional spa treatments, such as medicinal baths, met the cutting-edge medical technology of the time. The institution remained family-owned until 1919, playing a significant role in the medical landscape of Berlin. The display offers a unique glimpse into the evolution of psychiatric care and the intersection of health and society.
