Siriraj Medical Museum

Visited in June 2025. The Siriraj Medical Museum is nicknamed as the Museum of Death. it is open to the public and is highly important for medical professionals and students. This museum consists of five museums: Ellis Pathological Museum, Congdon Anatomical Museum, Songkran Niyomsan Forensic Medicine Museum, Parasitological Museum, and Sood Sangvichien Prehistoric Museum Laboratory. I was able visit three museums as other two were temporarily closed for public due to some events. There are two types of ticket packages. So check before buying. Finally, I will say it is not easy for everyone to visit these due to the nature of the exhibits. Photography is not allowed inside.

Most displays are in Thai only. No bags, no photos, and no video allowed. It’s an old place, exhibit is unlike nowhere else. Interesting, and even gross— made me realize that being alive is a lucky thing, go hear and learn how precious lige actually is.

A little hard to review this place. It’s very informative but you need a strong stomach to go here. There is actually 3 museum and they cost 100 baht each. Free for Thai. All three museums have some interesting stuff but lots of dead bodies and babies in jars. So if you don’t mind seeing that this place is for you. It also has a bit of a hospital smell. I’ve added some pictures of the exhibit that are appropriate but not of the dead bodies inside, just be warned! Some pictures are of the other two museums, my favorite was the boat museum which has the largest wooden boat ever found underground and also no dead bodies at the boat museum

e visited the Siriraj area with our guide Yuut and had a well-organized, informative day. Yuut was friendly and professional, helped with directions and timing, and made the visit easy and comfortable. Thanks again for a great experience.

Extremely impressive complex of several specialized museums, including four (general medicine, pathology, forensic, parasitology) in that very same location. Very informative, bilingual, however, I don't think general visitors should find its display interesting and appealing, as some parts of it may look pretty shocking to those far from medicine, forensic or crime investigation. Photography is strictly prohibited inside museums. My photos shown here were made from museum entrances.

If you have a lot of time in Bangkok and you like museums, the make sure to visit this museum. You can buy 1 ticket that covers 3 buildings. Even though I am not that much interested in the medical stuff, I still found this place interesting and worth it.

Don't go there if you can't read Thai! There are almost no explanations in English language. There is no structure, just random objects placed in rooms. I don't think you can really speak of a museum. 200 Bhat ist way to much, not worth it.

Fantastic Museum of Anatomy, Pathology, Parasites, Medical Museum. This museum let's you get a real life up close view of real bodies and all parts inside of bodies, great selection variety of specimens, curated in a very respectful way in a medical facility. Definitely worth a visit, to see, up close how we all are made. Amazing 💛
