Aker hospital museum, located in Trondheimsveien in Tonsen, presents a comprehensive exhibition of objects, pictures and descriptions from the hospital's over 200-year history. The hospital has been located in various places since 1794, and has developed into one of Norway's first hospitals with many specialities. The current location has been in use since 1895, and the museum provides an insight into the hospital's development and importance in the Norwegian healthcare system.
As part of Oslo University Hospital since 2010, Aker Hospital Museum also focuses on courses and training for patients and relatives. The museum offers information about rights and opportunities for patients, which helps to raise awareness of the healthcare system's development and services. Visitors can learn more about the hospital's role over time, as well as see unique collections that shed light on the hospital's history.
