Holy Cross Monastery with Hahnemann Center

„"Similarity of the same cures like" – what sounds like an ancient magic spell is the recipe for success of a physician with roots in Meissen. Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, was born in Meissen in 1755. The principle he discovered and scientifically described, "like cures like," was revolutionary and established a new discipline of alternative medicine that is still practiced today.
