Medical oddity museum

Siriraj Medical Museum

Bangkok Noi, Bangkok (Siriraj Hospital, Wang Lang, Thonburi riverside), Bangkok, Thailand

A cluster of medical collections inside Siriraj Hospital on the Thonburi riverside, nicknamed the Museum of Death for its forensic and anatomical halls. Exhibits span anatomy, pathology, forensic pathology, congenital conditions, toxicology and parasitology, so it reads as a genuinely local, non-touristy stop rather than a packaged attraction. It sits by the Wang Lang pier and is easy to reach by cross-river ferry, and it is not the kind of place that surfaces on a standard Bangkok booking app.

Price

Booking site listing

300 THB combined ticket covering the Siriraj Medical Museum and the Siriraj Bimuksthan Museum, per Trip.com. A travel guide separately lists 200 baht adult and 25 baht child, which likely refers to the medical museum alone. No price is shown on the official site, so treat these as unofficial.
