German physician and early bacteriologist Robert Koch discovered the cause of several infectious diseases, put to rest the previously-prevalent medical belief that most diseases were caused by "bad air", and won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1905.
He worked for several years at a struggling private practice and as a field physician in the Franco-Prussian War before being appointed district medical officer in the small town of Wollstein (then near the Polish border and now Wolsztyn, Poland).
