Visit he final home of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, and his daughter Anna Freud, a pioneering child psychoanalyst. Spend time in Sigmund Freud’s Study and see the world-famous psychoanalytic couch, along with Freud’s desk where he placed his favourite antiquities. You will also see the unusual, anthropomorphic chair that had been designed especially for Freud to accommodate his preferred seating posture, which was to have his legs over one arm of the chair. Preserved just as Freud left it, the Study will transport you back in time to Freud’s life in Vienna. In the Dining Room you'll learn about Freud's family story and the story of psychoanalysis. Visit Anna Freud’s Room to learn about her pioneering work on child psychoanalysis and see her couch and collections. Alongside Anna's Room you'll see a portrait of Sigmund Freud by the famous surrealist, Salvador Dalí. You can learn about their meeting in London in 1938 in Professor Ades’ article on Dalí’s sketches of Freud. In the next room you can watch the film about the Freud family (20 minutes). With voiceovers from Anna Freud, and a rare recording from an interview with Sigmund Freud, as well as footage from Vienna and London, it is a fascinating glimpse into the life of the founder of psychoanalysis. Finally, spend time in Sigmund Freud's peaceful garden.
