About Freud Museum

The Freud Museum is dedicated to Sigmund Freud, who lived there with his family during the last year of his life.

The study and library were preserved by Anna Freud after her father's death.

The centrepiece of the museum is the couch brought from Vienna on which his patients were asked to say whatever came to their mind without consciously selecting information, named the free association technique by him.
