By John Simpson •

A museum at the Royal College of Surgeons of England in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London, based on the anatomical and pathological collection of the surgeon John Hunter, purchased by the government in 1799 and entrusted to the College. Opened in 1813, its collections illustrate human and comparative anatomy, pathology, and surgery. Rebuilt and reorganised several times, the museum remains open to the public.
