Tung Wah Group of Hospitals Museum (東華三院文物館) is housed in the formly Main Hall Building of Kwong Wah Hospital. It is located inside the hospital area and it is just few minutes away from GZ on foot.
Tung Wah Museum was originally the Main Hall Building of Kwong Wah Hospital opened in 1911, the first hospital founded in Kowloon and the New Territories to provide medical services to the public. In 1958, Kwong Wah Hospital underwent complete reconstruction with only the Main Hall Building being preserved. In 1970, the centenary year of the TWGHs, the Main Hall Building was converted into the Tung Wah Museum for displaying the historic relics and housing the invaluable archives of the TWGHs. The Museum has been opened to the public since 1993.
The Museum is characterized by a combination of Chinese and Western architectural features. The Chinese characteristics of the Museum are clearly demonstrated by the ancestral hall setting and the Chinese decorations at the front elevation. Exquisite wood carvings are found on the floral and auspicious motifs of the eaves board as well as the truss system and camel’s humps along the verandah. The Western architectural elements are mainly found on the side and rear elevations of the building. Bull’s eye windows and segmental arched windows with keystones are used. Inside the main hall, the four arched doorways leading to the exhibition rooms are designed with western-style fanlights. While the roof of the main hall is supported by traditional Chinese purlins and truss system, queen post trusses are found at the side chambers.
The Museum is open from Monday through Saturday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is closed on public holidays.
