Surgeons' Hall Museums

Surgeons' Hall is home to the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, an organisation founded more than 500 years ago. Within the complex of buildings here you find collections of surgical pathology material, instruments, displays on radiology, a dental collection and more. In truth though, it's the gruesome pickled bits of people in jars that the public comes to see. Currently closed for redevelopment, the venue is scheduled to reopen in summer 2015.
