Royal Academy of Medicine anatomical theatre

Reial Acadèmia de Medicina de Catalunya

MonumentLocal favourite

The 1760 Royal College of Surgery by Ventura Rodríguez, one of the city's finest Neoclassical buildings, keeps its anatomical theatre, with an 18th-century dissection table at its centre that you can still see. It is inside the old Hospital de la Santa Creu complex, yet few visitors know they can book a visit.
