Hi, As a newcomer to your site I was browsing previous posts(some interesting stuff) and saw one posted some time ago when the question was posed “Was Napoleans penis removed after death?”
As a serving Officer on board the cargo ship "Good Hope Castle"we used to take mail and supplies to a remote island in the South Atlantic named Saint Helena where Napolean was exiled and subsequently died.
I visted Napoleans house in "Longwood"where he lived and died and which is now a museum in 1969…amongst the exhibits in a balck velvet lined case was his penis,why it was removed I have no idea but see no reason to doubt the authenticity,I do however understand why Josephine looked elsewhere for her satisfaction in the bedroom department!
philscorp, welcome to the Straight Dope Message Boards, and thanks for sharing your experience with Napoleon’s penis. (Wait, that didn’t come out quite right, did it?) Hey, welcome!
