On the ground floor of the house you can see Freud's office, library, living room and dining room, and visit the museum shop with numerous gadgets, games and cups, slippers and toys with the image of Freud or quotes from his works. The first floor is divided between the projection room, Anna Freud's room and the exhibition room where temporary exhibitions are organized.

Sigmund Freud spent the last year before his death in the house where the museum of his name is now. For the next decades, his youngest daughter Anna lived in this place, continuing her father's work. She has repeatedly stressed that she wants the house to become a museum one day. The Freud Museum was opened in 1986, four years after Anna's death.
