Wilhelm Reich Museum Review
The Wilhelm Reich Museum showcases the life and work of controversial physician-scientist Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), who believed that a force called orgone energy is in all living matter and the atmosphere. The Orgone Energy Observatory exhibits biographical materials, inventions, and the equipment used in his experiments. Also on view are Reich's library, personal memorabilia, and artwork. There are hands-on children's exhibits and, in July and August, family-friendly nature programs. Trails lace the 175-acre grounds, and the observatory deck has magnificent views of the countryside.
