Die Naturwissenschaftlich-Technische Sammlung in Kassel

Mackensen, L. von: 1991 Kassel, hardcover, 156 pages, with photos. Die Naturwissenschaftlich‑Technische Sammlung in Kassel by Ludolf von Mackensen surveys the history, significance, and display strategy of Kassel’s scientific and technical collections housed in the Orangerie, outlining how instruments and artifacts narrate the measurement of heaven, earth, and time within a museum context. The book provides a structured guide to the collection’s contents and curatorial approach, situating notable scientific instruments within broader histories of astronomy and technology in Hesse/Kassel and referencing catalogued items cited in scholarly works on scientific instruments.
