Today the RPA Museum tells the history of one of the country's most well-known hospitals. It holds more than 6,000 items including medical equipment, nursing history, photography, administration documents and more. Two of the display rooms sit within the original 1941 operating theatres.
The museum also showcases an impressive collection of material related to the history of healthcare in Australia.
