The Dupuytren Museum (fr: Musée Dupuytren), situated in the "Centre des Cordeliers" in Paris (15 rue de l'Ecole de Médecine), contains a very large and important collection of pathological anatomy items.
It was founded in 1835, thanks to the bequest of the famous surgeon Guillaume Dupuytren (1777-1835). Its history - a rather tormented one - can be read at the official site of the Museum .
Many famous physicians enriched the collection with their own items. Among them: Pierre-Joseph Desault , the teacher of Dupuytren in the Hôtel-Dieu, Dupuytren himself, Jean-Nicolas Corvisart , Napoleon's personal pysician, René Laennec , Jean-Louis Alibert , Pierre Paul Broca , Jean-Martin Charcot , Joseph Jules Dejerine and his wife Augusta Déjerine-Klumpke .
