In January 1888, shortly after his Habilitation (Nov. 1887), Theodor Boveri came for the first time as guest investigator to the Naples Zoological Station. The last of his eight research stays took place in spring 1914, the year before his untimely death in 1915. The Naples Station was therefore a constant presence in all his scientific life. At least 20 of his publications are based on research done at Naples. In this paper, I will try to outline the unique working conditions that Boveri found at Naples. By 1888, the Naples Station was already an expanding, smoothly functioning organism. Excellent animal supply and research equipment, the constant presence of an international scientific community and the beauties of Mediterranean nature and European culture fostered a creative atmosphere that gave particular relevance to a research stay at Naples. In 1910, Boveri defined the Naples Station a "permanent international congress of zoologists". Boveri's "Naples experience" will be described and some light will also be shed on Boveri's role in keeping the memory of Anton Dohrn alive.
1888年1月，西奥多·博韦里在获得教授资格后不久（1887年11月），首次作为客座研究员来到那不勒斯动物学站。他八次研究停留中的最后一次是在1914年春天，也就是他于1915年英年早逝的前一年。因此，那不勒斯动物学站在他的整个科学生涯中一直存在。他至少有20篇出版物是基于在那不勒斯进行的研究。在本文中，我将尝试概述博韦里在那不勒斯所发现的独特工作条件。到1888年时，那不勒斯动物学站已经是一个不断发展、运转顺畅的机构。充足的动物供应和研究设备、国际科学界的持续存在以及地中海自然风光和欧洲文化的魅力营造了一种富有创造力的氛围，这使得在那不勒斯的研究停留具有特殊意义。1910年，博韦里将那不勒斯动物学站定义为“动物学家的常设国际大会”。本文将描述博韦里的“那不勒斯经历”，并阐述博韦里在铭记安东·多恩方面所起的作用。
