Deadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race

Deadly Medicine has concluded its run at the Science Museum of Minnesota.

Examining twins at the Kaiser Wilhelm InstituteFrom 1933 to 1945, Nazi Germany carried out a campaign to "cleanse" German society of individuals viewed as biological threats to the nation's "health." Driven by a racist ideology legitimized by German scientists, the Nazis attempted to eliminate all of Europe's Jews, ultimately killing six million in the Holocaust.

Developed by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Deadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race is a thought-provoking exhibition of objects, photographs, documents, and historic film footage from European and American collections.

Deadly Medicine contains historical photographs, artifacts and survivor testimony from the Holocaust, including explicit images of medical experimentation on children.

United States Holocaust Memorial MuseumDeadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race is organized and circulated by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, presented locally in partnership with the University of Minnesota's Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies.
