OSH Museum of Mental Health

Record

Why it matters

A museum inside the Oregon State Hospital's Kirkbride Building that confronts the institution's history and the changing treatment of mental illness.

Field note

This is a living hospital campus, not an abandoned asylum attraction. Visit only the museum and treat patients, staff, and the subject with care.
