Robert Koch Museum

Small museum in the town where Robert Koch worked before his bacteriology breakthroughs.

Robert Koch, later famous for identifying the bacteria behind tuberculosis and cholera, worked in Wolsztyn as a district physician in the 1870s. The small museum keeps that scientific thread visible in a town otherwise known for steam engines and lake walks.

It is a niche stop, but a good one: medical instruments, biographical material, and the reminder that major scientific careers often begin in ordinary provincial rooms.
