Siriraj Medical Museum is a medical museum in Bangkok, Thailand; it consists of several medical museums on the site including the Forensic Medicine Museum. This is not for the light hearted or those who have an delicate constitution. Started in the 1920's the museum is part of the Siriraj hospital and teaching facility.
Located at the Siriraj Hospital, it has a large collection of important forensic specimens related to the modern history of Thailand. It has displays on the first serial killer of the country and many well-known murder cases including a 1950s cannibal.
The mummified remains of the serial killer cannibal Si Ouey Sae Urng ('sae' being the Thai signifier of a Chinese clan name, in this case 'Urng'. The sign on the case incorrectly spells his name in Romanised script as 'Si Quey' but the Thai script clearly names him with, in brackets behind his name "Manut kin khon" - "cannibal".
There are skulls and other body parts in glass cases.
