The Royal Hospital of Bethlehem; gallery for men
The hospital also known as Bethlem Royal Hospital or Bedlam was the oldest psychiatric hospital in the world. The building had been moved around many sites, but was founded in a priory on the outskirts of the city by the sisters of the Star of Bethlehem. It then moved to Bishopsgate Street, where Liverpool Street Station now stands. Afterwards to Moorfields and then to the Lambeth site where the Imperial War Museum is now housed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical significance of The Royal Hospital of Bethlehem, also known as Bethlem Royal Hospital or Bedlam. Established in a priory on the outskirts of the city by the sisters of the Star of Bethlehem, this hospital holds the title of being the oldest psychiatric hospital in the world.
The building has undergone numerous relocations throughout its long history, moving from Bishopsgate Street (where Liverpool Street Station now stands) to Moorfields and eventually settling at its Lambeth site (now home to the Imperial War Museum). Each move reflects a chapter in the hospital's evolution and commitment to providing care for those in need.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to 1860 when this gallery for men stood as a beacon of hope and healing. The architectural details and grandeur of the structure speak volumes about its importance not only within London's history but also within global psychiatric healthcare.
Through this Rights Managed photo print, we are reminded of how far we have come in understanding mental health while honoring the legacy and impact that institutions like The Royal Hospital of Bethlehem have had on society.
