The short visit of the famous German hygienist Max von Pettenkofer (1818-1901) in Saxonia is described. Some days in November and December 1865, Pettenkofer was in the course of the cholera epidemic in Altenburg, Crimmitschau, Werdau, Glauchau and Zwickau, but not in Dresden and Leipzig. We receive a picture from the situation of hygiene and infectology in the time before the bacteriologist (and antagonist of Pettenkofer) Robert Koch (1834-1910) discovered the cholera bacillus. Pettenkofer met some very important physicians of this country and discussed the origin and spreading of the cholera disease. Pettenkofer himself has published a paper about the Saxonia tour, which expressed the ideas of natural sciences in the second half of the nineteen century.
本文描述了德国著名卫生学家马克斯·冯·佩滕科费尔（1818 - 1901）在萨克森尼亚的短暂访问。1865年11月和12月的几天里，佩滕科费尔身处阿尔滕堡、克里米乔、韦尔道、格劳绍和茨维考的霍乱疫情之中，但未前往德累斯顿和莱比锡。我们得以了解在细菌学家（也是佩滕科费尔的对手）罗伯特·科赫（1834 - 1910）发现霍乱杆菌之前，当时卫生学和传染病学的情况。佩滕科费尔会见了该国一些非常重要的医生，并讨论了霍乱疾病的起源和传播。佩滕科费尔本人发表了一篇关于此次萨克森尼亚之行的论文，该论文表达了19世纪下半叶自然科学的观点。
