Abstract

For 48 years of his life, Dr. Gustav Wilhelm Münter was a diligent, skillful, reliable and indispensable assistant of the Meckel Collections. He was a loyal worker under famous superiors as Johann Friedrich Meckel the Younger (1781-1833), Eduard d'Alton (1803-1854) and Alfred Wilhelm Volkmann (1801-1877). Münter's aim was to get scientific acknowledgement and the position of a "Prosector". But he reached none of it. However, A. W. Volkmann, who often criticized Münter's work, was obligated to say: "It is true, that a very large part of the Meckel Collections had been prepared and put up by him." Today the Anatomical Collections of Halle include a large number of very nice preparations produced by Münter.
