While visits to hospital are never usually fun, we paid a visit to\u00a0St Bartholomew’s museum that is on the same site as\u00a0St Bartholomew’s Hospital.<\/p>\n

The hospital was founded in 1123. It’s museum includes documents from the 12th to the 21st centuries. It also houses artifacts reflecting the changes to patient care, teaching and hospital administration.<\/p>\n

The museum is located in the hospital\u2019s historic North Wing and overlooks the famous 18th<\/sup> century square designed by James Gibbs. It houses the permanent exhibition of original and facsimile archives, objects and works of art.\u00a0The earliest document in the collection is the Rahere\u2019s grant of 1137.<\/p>\n

As part of Henry VIII\u2019s dissolution of the monasteries in 1539,\u00a0<\/span>St Bartholomew\u2019s Hospital Priory was closed, although the hospital was allowed to continue. Concerned Londoners\u00a0<\/span>petitioned the king for the grant of four hospitals in the City including St Bartholomew\u2019s. In\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>1546 Henry VIII signed an agreement <\/span>granting the hospital to the City of London. Along with Bethlem, Bridewell and St Thomas\u2019, St Bartholomew\u2019s became one of four royal hospitals administered by the City.<\/p>\n
