What travelers say:

The second floor of the Algenasio Palace is the world's first human anatomy laboratory, and the interior is beautifully decorated, like a museum. Sixteenth-century Europe remained under the strict control of Catholicism, and human anatomy was forbidden, and the University of Bologna was given permission. Anatomy experiments here laid the foundations of contemporary medicine. It was once destroyed by the fire of World War II, but it took nearly half a century to rebuild it before it was recreated. On one side of the wall of the theater, a doctor holding a long strip, actually a nose. So, it is believed that this is the first place to start the study of human plastic surgery.
