Welcome to the Old Operating Theatre Museum & Herb Garret. Housed in the attic of the old St Thomas’ Hospital, this atmospheric museum offers a unique insight into the history of medicine and surgery. The Herb Garret was used to dry and store herbs for patients’ medicines and in 1822 an operating theatre was included, which is the oldest surviving surgical theatre in Europe.
