The collection of the Anatomical Museum consists of approximately 12,000 objects, which illustrate the story of 300 years of teaching Anatomy at the University of Edinburgh.
About one third of the museum’s collection is related to pathology, anatomy and comparative anatomy (zoology). This includes anatomical models, skeletal remains, dried preparations and specimens preserved in spirit.
The rest of the collection includes phrenological, pharmacological and forensic material as well as anatomical illustrations and other artworks.
