The current conflicts on the Balkans are used as an opportunity to call to mind the VIII. conference of the DDG in Sarajevo in 1903. For the first time, it then took place in a city which did not have a university and therefore no university clinic. Possible political but also dermato-venereological aspects concerning the choice of conference venue are discussed. Furthermore, highlights of the situation of the DDG in those days are presented and some central points regarding the professional topics of the conference and presentation are considered.
