Napoleon's Penis

This page contains links to online articles and websites about Napoleon's penis. For the uninitiated, Napoleon's penis is said to have been taken from him by the Abbé who delivered last rites. Since then it has been sold, inherited and auctioned many times.

The current whereabouts of Napoleon's penis is still a matter of some dispute, though by most accounts it is in the posession of an american urologist named John Kingsley Lattimer who paid $38,000 for it at a 1969 auction. In addition to alledgedly owning Napoleon's penis, Lattimer is famous for supervising the health of german war criminals during the Nuremberg trials and writing several investigative pieces about the assasinations of John F. Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln .
