Summary

The year 2020 was also about the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth. On this occasion, his rarely discussed life and death masks should be presented. In addition, a short historical outline is given of the history of face masks in general, which now accompanies us in everyday life in the form of the face–nose mask due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
