The Institute was a non-profit foundation situated in Berlin's Tiergarten.
It was headed by Magnus Hirschfeld.
Since 1897 he had run the Wissenschaftlich-humanitäres Komitee (" Scientific-Humanitarian Committee "), which campaigned on conservative and rational grounds for gay rights and tolerance.
The Committee published the long-running journal Jahrbuch fur sexuelle Zwischenstufen.
Hirschfeld was also a researcher ; he collected questionnaires from 10, 000 people, informing his book Die Homosexualität des Mannes und des Weibes (" The Homosexuality of Man and Woman ", 1914 ).
He built a unique library on same-sex love and eroticism.
