Gustavianum is a historic building located in Uppsala, Sweden, and it serves as a museum affiliated with Uppsala University. Constructed between 1622 and 1625, it is named after Gustavus Adolphus, the Swedish king who played a significant role in its establishment. The building originally functioned as the main university building and housed lecture halls, a library, and an anatomical theater. The anatomical theater, designed by Olaus Rudbeck in the 17th century, is one of the oldest in Europe and remains a prominent feature of the museum today.
