The HUS Museum Committee redesigned the permanent exhibition of the Hospital Museum in cooperation with the Tuusula Museum in spring 2019. The museum is owned by HUS and the Tuusula Museum acts as a partner in keeping the museum open for visitors. The hospital museum displays the hospital’s old artefacts, such as lobotomy instruments and equipment used in shock treatments, as well as items and artwork made by the patients in occupational therapy.
