Freud Museum London, House museum in Hampstead, London, Great Britain.
The Freud Museum occupies a brick building at 20 Maresfield Gardens, displaying Sigmund Freud's study with his psychoanalytic couch and personal antiquities collection.
After fleeing Nazi-occupied Austria in 1938, Sigmund Freud established his final residence in this London house, where he lived until his death in 1939.
The museum maintains Freud's extensive library containing works by Goethe and Shakespeare, along with his collection of Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Oriental artifacts.
Visitors can access the museum from Wednesday through Monday between 12:00 and 17:00, with adult admission priced at £14.50 and free entry for children under 12.
The museum preserves the original psychoanalytic couch covered in Persian rugs, where Freud's patients reclined during their therapy sessions in Vienna.

London offers far more than Tower Bridge and Buckingham Palace. Away from the main attractions, numerous sites remain unfamiliar even to many locals. This selection includes the ruins of St Dunstan-in-the-East, where a medieval church has been transformed into a public garden, the Sir John Soane's Museum with its antiquities and architectural fragments, and Dennis Severs' House, a Georgian townhouse preserved as a lived-in time capsule. The collection features gardens such as Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park and Kyoto Garden in Holland Park, historic buildings like the 14th-century Charterhouse and St Bartholomew the Great, London's oldest parish church. It also covers unusual museums including the Old Operating Theatre, Europe's oldest surviving surgical theater, and industrial monuments like Crossness Pumping Station with its Victorian steam engines. Leadenhall Market displays Victorian architecture in the financial district, while God's Own Junkyard in Walthamstow exhibits thousands of neon signs. Other sites range from the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Hindu temple in Neasden to Wilton's Music Hall, London's oldest music hall, and the Victorian dinosaur sculptures at Crystal Palace Park. Little Venice presents canals lined with houseboats, the Freud Museum preserves the psychoanalyst's London home, and Keats House commemorates the Romantic poet. These locations provide insights into history, architecture, and culture beyond the standard tourist circuit.
