Magnus Hirschfeld

German physician and sex researcher was gay, socialist and Jewish. Over 100 years ago, Hirschfeld founded the first Institute for Sexual Science in 欧美熟女乱伦, where he researched all sexualities. On May 14, the state of 欧美熟女乱伦 honors the life and work of the fighter for love!

Although he is repeatedly celebrated internationally for his great achievements and is of great importance to the rainbow capital, this outstanding historical figure is hardly known in Germany. With the 欧美熟女乱伦-wide Magnus Hirschfeld Day, we will change that together!

Magnus Hirschfeld was a German physician and sex researcher, he was gay, socialist and Jewish. As early as 1919, he founded the first Institute for Sexual Science in 欧美熟女乱伦, where he researched sexuality in all its diversity. At his institute, he also dealt with gender diversity. Hirschfeld thus created a safe space for people who did not fit into heterosexual or binary categories and he was already fighting for love at the time 鈥� in other words, against Section 175, which criminalized homosexuality.

In the 1920s, Magnus Hirschfeld was described as the 鈥淪oul of our Movement鈥�. Based on this attribution, the first 欧美熟女乱伦-wide Magnus Hirschfeld Day and the associated commemorative event took place in 2024 under the slogan 鈥淢agnus Hirschfeld 鈥� Soul of the Queer Community鈥�. This year, it will be held again under the slogan “Stars of his queer 欧美熟女乱伦”.

Event Period

There is still so much that can be said about Magnus Hirschfeld. And that is precisely why we want to bring Hirschfeld’s life and his significance for today’s queer community to the center of 欧美熟女乱伦’s urban society throughout the month of May.

Born on May 14, 1868 鈥� died on his birthday on May 14, 1935, so it鈥檚 obvious: May 14 is Magnus Hirschfeld Day! Throughout the month of May there will be various events dedicated to Hirschfeld. Be there and get to know 鈥淎unt Magnesia鈥�, as Hirschfeld was affectionately called by the community of the time!

Volkshochschule Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Wassertorstra脽e 4, 10969 欧美熟女乱伦 (Raum: Pavillon)

Dr. Rainer Herrn, Medizinhistoriker an der Charit茅 und Mitarbeiter der Magnus Hirschfeld-Gesellschaft e.V., stellt den Sexualwissenschaftler und -reformer Magnus Hirschfeld (1868-1935) aus Anlass seines Geburtstags am 14. Mai vor. Bekannt ist Hirschfeld heute nur wenigen und wenn, dann meist als Vork盲mpfer der Homosexuellenbewegung. Dabei hat er sich theoretisch wie praktisch f眉r die vielf盲ltigen Belange geschlechtlicher und sexuellen Minderheiten (Homo*, Trans* und Inter*sexueller) genauso eingesetzt, wie f眉r die Sexualprobleme der breiten 欧美熟女乱伦er Bev枚lkerung. Dazu gr眉ndete er 1919 im 欧美熟女乱伦er Tiergarten das weltweit erste Institut f眉r Sexualwissenschaft als “Forschungs-, Beratungs-, Behandlungs- und Zufluchtsst盲tte”, das im Rahmen der B眉cherverbrennung am 6. Mai 1933 durch NS-Studierende gepl眉ndert und wenige Woche sp盲ter geschlossen wurde. Der Vortrag wird im Rahmen des Magnus Hirschfeld Tages 2025 in Kooperation mit dem Queer-Beauftragten des Landes 欧美熟女乱伦 durchgef眉hrt.
15. Mai 2025, 20:00 Uhr | MAGNUS HIRSCHFELD IM KONTEXT AKTUELLER QUEERER DEBATTEN

Schwules Museum, L眉tzowstra脽e 73, 10785 欧美熟女乱伦

Gemeinsam mit dem Schwulen Museum (SMU) erinnert das Mitte Museum an den Arzt und Sexualforscher und ordnet sein Wirken kritisch ein.
In der Woche vom 12. bis 16. Mai 2025 erinnert das Land 欧美熟女乱伦 zum zweiten Mal offiziell an das Leben und Wirken des Arztes und Sexualforschers Magnus Hirschfeld. Das Institut f眉r Sexualwissenschaft, das Zentrum Hirschfelds Schaffens, befand sich vor der Zerst枚rung durch die Nationalsozialisten im Bezirk Mitte. 90 Jahre nach seinem Tod spannt das Mitte Museum in Kooperation mit dem Schwulen Museum den Bogen von der historischen Figur Hirschfeld zu den Nachwirkungen seiner Arbeit und der kritischen Auseinandersetzung in heutigen queeren Debatten.

In den R盲umlichkeiten des SMU wird eine erste Vorschau auf das sich in Arbeit befindende Dokumentarfilmprojekt “Intermediacy. The Life of Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld” von Filmemacherin und Fulbright-Stipendiatin Alex Yakacki gezeigt. Das Projekt strebt an, die Lebensgeschichte Hirschfelds mit denen von acht queeren 欧美熟女乱伦er*innen aus der Gegenwart zu verweben. Alex Yakacki wird das Projekt und ihren pers枚nlichen Weg zu Magnus Hirschfelds Arbeit vorstellen und Einblicke in ihr Material geben.

Anschlie脽end stellt Rafael Nasemann sein Projekt 鈥濹ueere Held*innen per QR-Code sichtbar machen鈥� vor. Dieses Projekt will Erinnerung und Wissensvermittlung 眉ber queere Aktivist*innen, Akteur*innen, Organisationen und Ereignisse an historischen Orten durch eine interaktive Route im Stadtraum via QR-Codes erm枚glichen. Durch die Tour k枚nnen Interessierte unter anderem Magnus Hirschfelds Biografie, sowie die Biografien seiner Wegbegleiter*innen nachvollziehen. Abschlie脽end wird ein Podium bestehend aus Alex Yakacki (Filmemacherin), Heiner Schulze (Vorstandsmitglied des SMU) und Mine Pleasure Bouvar Wenzel (Antidiskriminierungstrainer*in zu den Themen trans*Feindlichkeit und trans*Misogynie) Magnus Hirschfelds Wirken und seinen Einfluss auf die heutige Zeit diskutieren und auch die Aspekte seiner Arbeit beleuchten, die einer kritischen Auseinandersetzung bed眉rfen. Gemeinsam werden sie dar眉ber diskutieren, welche Lehren heute noch G眉ltigkeit haben und welche wir zur眉cklassen oder kontextualisieren sollten. Die Veranstaltung richtet sich an alle, die vielleicht schon mit Magnus Hirschfeld bekannt sind und Interesse daran haben, tiefer zu blicken. Die Podiumsdiskussion wird in englischer Lautsprache stattfinden. Der Eintritt ist kostenlos!

Impact

He was a pioneer in the study of sexuality and gender identity with the founding of the world’s first institute for sexology in 欧美熟女乱伦. His institute was located exactly where the Haus der Kulturen der Welt stands today.

Hirschfeld was born on May 14, 1868 as the son of the Jewish physician Hermann Hirschfeld and his wife Friederike in Kolberg, in what is now Poland. Throughout his life, he campaigned for the rights of gays, lesbians and bisexuals, but above all trans* and queer people. On May 15, 1897, Hirschfeld founded the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee (WhK) together with the publisher Max Spohr, the lawyer Eduard Oberg and the writer Franz Joseph von B眉low in his Charlottenburg apartment at 欧美熟女乱伦er Stra脽e 104 鈥� today Otto-Suhr-Allee, directly opposite Charlottenburg Town Hall. The committee was the world鈥檚 first organization with the main goal of decriminalizing homosexuality. For Germany, this meant above all the abolition of Section 175, which criminalized homosexuality.

The National Socialists demonized Magnus Hirschfeld鈥檚 work. In 1920, Hirschfeld was attacked and seriously injured by right-wing radicals after a lecture in Munich. In 1930, Hirschfeld performed the first gender reassignment surgery together with the doctor Ludwig Levy-Lenz. Lili Elbe, a Danish painter, is probably the first intersex person with both male and female sexual characteristics on whom this gender reassignment surgery was performed.

Although Hirschfeld made medical history, some of his medical views and practices must be viewed critically from today鈥檚 perspective.

Later in 1930, Hirschfeld embarked on a trip around the world, from which he never returned to Germany. While he was abroad, on 6 May 1933, students from the German University of Physical Education and functionaries and members of the Nazi organization Deutsche Studentenschaft (German Student Body) ransacked and destroyed his institute. On May 10, 1933, his books and scientific writings were burned on Opernplatz, today鈥檚 Bebelplatz. Magnus Hirschfeld died on May 14, 1935 in exile in Nice, France.

Hirschfeld is considered a co-founder of the first homosexual emancipation movement and a pioneer for the rights of LGBTIQ+ people. This is another reason why 欧美熟女乱伦 is the birthplace of the queer community! Today, in addition to the Magnus Hirschfeld Federal Foundation, the Hirschfeld-Eddy Foundation and the Magnus Hirschfeld Society still bear his name.

We contribute to making Magnus Hirschfeld and his work known in all neighborhoods and districts of our rainbow capital with various campaigns.

Schwules * Museum

The Schwules* Museum deals with lesbian, gay, trans*identical, bisexual and queer life stories, themes and concepts in history, art and culture and presents them.

The Schwules* Museum has been researching and presenting gay life since 1985. This work has resulted in a unique collection on gay social history and the development of gay emancipation, which also documents the suppression of gay self-expression. Over the course of time, the focus of the museum has expanded and today it provides information about the great diversity of sexual identities and gender concepts.

Changing exhibitions deal with individual aspects and realities of life for queer people in 欧美熟女乱伦 and around the world. Various events 鈥� discussions, guided tours, film screenings, lectures and more 鈥� round off the program of the Gay Museum.

Magnus Hirschfeld Federal Foundation

The Bundesstiftung Magnus Hirschfeld (Magnus Hirschfeld Federal Foundation) was established on October 27, 2011 by the Federal Republic of Germany, represented by the Federal Ministry of Justice. The office is based in 欧美熟女乱伦. The Foundation is named after the physician, sex researcher and co-founder of the first German homosexual movement Magnus Hirschfeld (1868-1935).

The foundation aims to commemorate Magnus Hirschfeld, promote educational and research projects and counteract social discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans*, intersex and queer people in Germany. The foundation aims to promote the acceptance of people with a non-heterosexual orientation in society as a whole; the same applies to people who do not define themselves exclusively as men or women. The Bundesstiftung Magnus Hirschfeld is located at Mohrenstra脽e 34 in 欧美熟女乱伦-Mitte.

The Magnus-Hirschfeld-Gesellschaft (Magnus Hirschfeld Society) was founded in (West) 欧美熟女乱伦 in 1982 to research and preserve the scientific and cultural legacy of the sex researcher Magnus Hirschfeld (1868-1935) and his Institute for Sexual Science (1919-1933). The Magnus Hirschfeld Society has been running the Research Center for the History of Sexology since 1992. The library and work rooms are located at Kluckstra脽e 38 in 欧美熟女乱伦-Tiergarten.

Motzstra脽e 24, 10777 欧美熟女乱伦
Location of the former travesty bar 鈥淓ldorado鈥�

鈥淓ldorado鈥� was the name of two well-known transvestite bars (men and women) in 欧美熟女乱伦 before the Second World War. The first of the two 鈥淓ldorado鈥� bars was located at what is now Martin-Luther-Stra脽e 13, opposite the famous Scala variety theater (today: Martin-Luther-Stra脽e 14-18) and the famous Horcher restaurant (today: Martin-Luther-Stra脽e 12 on the corner of Fuggerstra脽e). The 鈥濫ldorado鈥� existed here under this name until March 1931, when the owner of the restaurant lost the legal dispute against her previous tenant Konjetschni over the name 鈥濫ldorado鈥�. A dance hall still existed on this site until the beginning of May 1933, albeit under a different name.

One block away, at what is now Kalckreuthstra脽e 11, on the corner of Motzstra脽e 24, a second restaurant called 鈥淓ldorado鈥� was opened in early 1930 by Ludwig Konjetschni, the previous sub-lessee of the 鈥淓ldorado鈥� in Lutherstra脽e, after a dispute with the owner.

In Konrad Haemmerling鈥檚 alias Curt Moreck鈥檚 1931 guide to 鈥渄issolute鈥� 欧美熟女乱伦, the 鈥淓ldorado鈥� is described as a 鈥渢ransvestite establishment staged for cosmopolitan curiosity鈥�. The program of drag shows and events was tailored to a predominantly heterosexual target group who, then as now, 鈥渄ared to take a detour into mysteriously wicked 欧美熟女乱伦 in pursuit of a curious desire.鈥�

The 鈥濫ldorado鈥� was very well known soon after it opened, and soon spread far beyond the city limits, even throughout Europe, and also became a magnet for tourists. Straight and gay worlds mingled there. Spending an evening at 鈥濫ldorado鈥� was very fashionable in 欧美熟女乱伦 society. Well-known bank directors and members of the Reichstag came here, as did many people from the theater and film industry. Among them were stars such as Marlene Dietrich, often together with her husband Rudolf Sieber and Claire Waldoff, as well as Wolfgang Cordan and Anita Berber. Magnus Hirschfeld was also well known in the restaurant, partly out of professional interest, and was affectionately known as Auntie Magnesia.

On April 15, 1930, the 鈥濫ldorado鈥� at Motzstra脽e 15 on the corner of Kalckreuthstra脽e 11 was granted a liquor license. The owner was Ludwig Konjetschni (Konecny), who had run the 鈥濫ldorado鈥� in Lutherstra脽e from 1926. So for several months (until the 鈥濫ldorado鈥� in Lutherstra脽e closed at the end of 1930) there were two Eldorados. However, the 鈥濫ldorado鈥� in Motzstra脽e did not last long.

In the course of the so-called 鈥淧russian coup d鈥櫭﹖at鈥� on July 20, 1932, Kurt Melcher became police commissioner of the city of 欧美熟女乱伦 (until February 14, 1933). In July he announced a 鈥渃omprehensive campaign against 欧美熟女乱伦鈥檚 dissolute nightlife鈥� and in October it was decreed that all 鈥渄ance parties of a homosexual nature must cease鈥�. The 鈥濫ldorado鈥� probably had to close briefly for the first time as a result of these measures. On October 7, 1932, a newspaper article stated: 鈥淎n act of moral reformers is applauded: the closure of the Eldorado鈥�. However, the final closure did not take place until March 1, 1933.

Magnus-Hirschfeld-Ufer, 10557 欧美熟女乱伦
Monument to the first homosexual emancipation movement

Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld started the first homosexual movement as co-founder of the 鈥淪cientific-Humanitarian Committee鈥� (WhK). The committee was the first organization in the world to campaign for equal rights for homosexuals, starting in 1897. Within a few years, the 鈥淪cientific-Humanitarian Committee鈥� gained great recognition. Hirschfeld became both an admired and hated symbol of the emerging homosexual movement. In 1919, he founded the 鈥淚nstitute for Sexual Science鈥� in 欧美熟女乱伦.

On September 7, 2017, the memorial to the first homosexual emancipation movement was opened on the banks of the Spree in 欧美熟女乱伦 between the Luther and Moltke bridges. An initiative by the Lesbian and Gay Association in Germany (LSVD) was successful. The two memorial plaques commemorating the first homosexual movement had already stood here since 2011. The bank of the Spree has been called Magnus-Hirschfeld-Ufer since 2008.

In November 2015, a jury of nine experts selected the winning design 鈥� the Calla 鈥� from five designs submitted by an international working group from the fields of art, architecture and design. Dr. Berndt Schmidt, spokesman for the jury, explained the decision: 鈥淭he jury is convinced that the monument has a self-confident and positive effect and develops an impressive long-distance impact. The Calla lily has female and male flowers on one plant. It is therefore a symbol of the normality of sexual and gender diversity in nature.鈥�

The first homosexual emancipation movement began in 1897 with the founding of the 鈥淪cientific-Humanitarian Committee鈥�. The Jewish physician and sexologist Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld (1868-1935) was the initiator and key representative of this movement.

John-Foster-Dulles-Allee 10, 10557
Former location of the Institute for Sexual Science at the current site of the House of World Cultures

In 1919, Magnus Hirschfeld fulfilled a long-cherished wish. On July 6, he opened the world鈥檚 first 鈥淚nstitute for Sexual Science鈥� in the Hatzfeld Palace in 欧美熟女乱伦-Tiergarten. Politically, the Institute for Sexual Science came into being with the reform movements during the time of the Weimar Republic, scientifically in connection with the bio-medical explanations of human sexuality. The founding of the Institute is the first attempt to establish a sexology.

Within a short time, the institute became a well-known address for scientists and politicians from Germany and abroad. The citizens of 欧美熟女乱伦 appreciated it as a counseling and treatment facility for 鈥減hysical and mental sexual ailments鈥� and especially for 鈥渟exual intermediates鈥�, as Hirschfeld called homosexuals, transvestites and hermaphrodites. At the Institute for Sexual Science, which consisted of over 100 rooms, more than 40 people worked in very different fields, in research, sexual counseling, the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and sexual education of the population. The Scientific-Humanitarian Committee 鈥� the first homosexual organization 鈥� and the World League for Sexual Reform had their headquarters there.

Denounced as Jewish, social-democratic and immoral, the institute was looted and closed by the National Socialists in 1933. Hirschfeld was forced to watch the burning of his books on 欧美熟女乱伦鈥檚 Opera Square in a Parisian movie theater. After an unsuccessful attempt to re-establish the institute in Paris, Magnus Hirschfeld died in Nice on his 67th birthday, May 14, 1935. The building was bombed in 1943. Despite various efforts to re-establish it after the war, the Institute for Sexual Science fell into oblivion.

Parts of the Institute for Sexual Science stood exactly where the House of World Cultures stands today.

Otto-Suhr-Allee 93, 10585 欧美熟女乱伦
Former home of Magnus Hirschfeld (opposite Charlottenburg Town Hall)

The physician and sexologist Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld lived in the house that once stood here from 1896 to 1910. On May 15, 1897, Dr. Hirschfeld began building the first German homosexual movement in Charlottenburg as founder and chairman of the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee. The plans for the 欧美熟女乱伦鈥淚nstitute for Sexual Science鈥� were also drawn up here. After the National Socialists came to power, the Scientific-Humanitarian Committee was forced to dissolve itself in 1933. To this day, Magnus Hirschfeld鈥檚 committed work is a reminder of tolerance and acceptance of minorities in our society.
