Oterdahlska huset, Medical History Museum in Nordstaden district, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Oterdahlska huset is a two-story brick building located at the corner of Östra Hamngatan and Spannmålsgatan in the Nordstaden district. During its 19th-century expansion, additional corridors were added to accommodate larger operations within the structure.

The building was originally constructed in 1793 as a single-story stone structure. Merchant Aron Oterdahl donated it to Sahlgrenska Hospital in 1808, establishing its medical role in the city.

From 1855 to 1860 the building housed the Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning printing works, which also provided lodgings for its printers. The poet Viktor Rydberg, employed by the paper, lived for a couple of years in the 1850s in the old mortuary building in the courtyard.

The building now houses a Medical History Museum containing around 100,000 objects spanning medical developments and psychiatric history. The collection provides insight into how medical practices and understanding have evolved over time.

On 16 May 1923, detective constable Carl Olander was shot dead inside the building while searching a suspect, Kurt Haijby. It was the last killing of a Gothenburg police officer on duty until June 2021, 98 years later.
