The Freud House in London is planned to open as a museum during the summer of 1986, the 130th anniversary of Sigmund Freud's birth. The house, at 20 Maresfield Gardens in Hampstead, contains all of Freud's belongings which were brought from Vienna in 1938. In fulfilling the goal of creating a living memorial, a museum programme will encourage and sustain study and interpretation of psychoanalysis, psychology and psychiatry, the disciplines which Freud influenced so profoundly. The museum also will serve as a memorial to the generation of refugees who, like Sigmund Freud, emigrated to free societies from Hitler's Germany.
A prestigious committee composed of preeminent mental health professionals is directing the international campaign to establish the Freud Museum. Joining them are leaders in a number of related fields, who share a belief in the importance of Sigmund Freud and his life work. The Freud Museum Campaign Committee chairman and co-chairman are currently as follows:

Albert J. Solnit, M.D.

Peter B. Neubauer, M.D.
George H. Pollock, M.D., Ph.D.
Robert S. Wallerstein, M.D.
U.S. Honorary Co-Chairmen:
