Our Father of Homoeopathy, CHRISTIAN FRIEDRICH SAMUEL HAHNEMANN
was born in the town MEISSEN, GERMANY on 11th
April, 1755.
The baptismal register of Meissen contains the following record:
“Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann, born on the
morning of the 11th of April, of 1755;
baptized the thirteenth day
of April of the same year, by M. Junghanns.
Father, Christian Gottfried Hahnemann, painter. Mother, Johanna Christiana, born
Spiess.” The worthy pastor, M.
Junghannes, was of the Lutheran faith, and the infant was baptized on the
Sabbath after its birth according to those tenets. The date of Hahnemann’s birth has usually
been given as the 10th, and not the 11th of April. The town register gives the 11th
and at the celebration at Meissen, in 1855, of the hundredth birth day, 11th
was the day selected.
