Deutsches Röntgen Museum

Imagine having the power to see through things. That's exactly what Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen achieved with his discovery of X-rays. As you look around, think about how this invention changed the world. Over to your left, you'll see an original X-ray machine. It might look like something from another era, but with it, the first mysterious images were taken, revealing the bones inside our bodies. And did you know Röntgen was the very first person to receive the Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery? You might even hear the faint hum of modern machines in the background, a testament to how far we've come.
