Samuel Hahnemann Memorial

Masonic Grand Master Samuel C. F. Hahnemann (1755-1843), a German physician and the founder of homeopathic school of medicine.

Unveiled in June of 1900 and donated by The American Institute of Homeopathy.

The pedestal bears the principle of homeopathy, expressed in the Latin phrase, similia similibus curantur ("like cures the like").

Four large bronze bas-relief panels depict Hahnemann as a student surrounded by books, a chemist in the laboratory, a teacher in the lecture room, and a physician at the bedside.
