In 1987, Jan Lindeman<\/a> (pathologist, \u2020 2014) established the Historical Microscopy Foundation. The objective of the Foundation is to collect, describe and preserve light microscopes and the techniques used for medical and biological work.<\/p>\n

The Foundation currently owns more than 250 microscopes which illustrate the mechanical and optical development of the microscope from the late 17th<\/sup> century until the end of the 20th<\/sup> century. Two of the most important microscopes in the collection are the English Marshall microscope and the Dutch microscope made by the Van Musschenbroek family of Leiden. The collection includes a range of 19th<\/sup>-century English, French and German microscopes. The 20th<\/sup> century is represented by microscopes made by the German companies Zeiss and Leitz as well as Caroline Bleeker\u2019s Dutch Nedoptifa company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
