Victorian Operating Theatre, London

Victorian Operating Theatre

Victoria Operating Theatre is atmospheric from the outset. Housed almost on the grounds of the current Kings College Medical School in a beautiful brick building, visitors are brought in through a tiny wooden door and led up an ancient spiral staircase. Led in groups each 15 minutes, the groups go into a herb attic where facts and medicines through the ages in Britain are displayed and explained, then in an annex to the operating theatre itself are cases of the old (and somewhat grim) operating tools used by surgeons from the Victorian era. Once you’re in the operating theatre itself, you’re shown how everything was used, set up and observed.
