Review №1

Very iconic and historic place in the history of modern medicine: the first place where an anesthetic was used during surgery. Very interesting to see the original operating from room preserved as it was during this first surgical procedure with ether.Anyone interested in the history of medicine would gain a great perspective of what medicine was like back in the nineteenth century.

Place known only from Thorwalds Century of the Surgeon is even greater in real life. Certainly worth to be visited.

Quirky place to visit, which is still in use as a lecturer theatre, I believe, in a large working hospital.
