Abstract

The article traces the journey from Wien to Florence made by the Museo Galileo copy of the Instrumentarium chirurgicum, a book on surgical instruments by Giovanni Alessandro Brambilla (1782). It replaced the Lorraine copy preserved by the Institute and Museum of the History of Science (now Museo Galileo) that was severely damaged by the flood that took place on the 4th of November 1966. It was a gift by the Institut fur Geschichte der Medizin and it was part of the international donations that came from all over the world to help the city of Florence in general and the museum in particular to get up after the disaster.
