Museo Storico Nazionale dell'Arte Sanitaria
Museo Storico Nazionale dell'Arte Sanitaria, Medical museum in Santo Spirito Hospital, Rome, Italy
The National Historic Museum of Healthcare Art displays collections of medical instruments, anatomical preparations, and pharmaceutical equipment across nine exhibition rooms.
Founded in 1929 after the 1911 International Exhibition of Retrospective Art, the museum opened in 1933 within a dedicated wing of Santo Spirito Hospital.
The Alessandrina Room contains hand-colored anatomical prints from the early 1800s, created by Antonio Serantony under Paolo Mascagni scientific guidance.
The museum maintains an extensive library with publications from the 16th to 20th centuries, including rare medical texts and works by Aldo Manuzio.
A reconstructed 17th-century pharmacy and an alchemical laboratory display ancient medical practices with original tools and containers from Roman hospitals.
