title: [100 years ago: the first school doctors in Leipzig--a contribution to the history of school health in Germany].
abstract: One hundred years ago, in May 1892, the first school doctors began their work. The medical and organizational conditions for activities in school hygiene in Germany, their problematic linkage to "racial hygiene" and the military, and the favourable conditions for school medicine at the national and local levels and among members of the profession in Leipzig and Saxonia are presented. A description of the doctors' hygiene-oriented tasks in the schools completes the picture of the development of school hygiene in imperial Germany and in one of its richest cities.
