This paper briefly sums up the long history of the Royal San Andres Hospital, comprising its beginnings on 1552 with San Francisco de Molina, its evolution until becoming one of the most important hospitals of Lima and then of Perú during the colonial age, its trascendental link with, the peruvian history and medicine, specially with San Fernando, in the medical teaching reform with the establishment of the Surgery and Anatomy Amphitheatre, until its last service day on March 1875, date in which it was relegated by a Modern Hospital for such an age, The Dos de Mayo Hospital. Due to its significance for history, Medicine and San Fernando its still in existence structures would be the adequate ones to shelter the Peruvian Medical History Museum.
