Description:
- The dentist's chair in the entrance hall barely prepares you for what is about to come. The centre piece of the museum is a fine collection of human limbs preserved in glass jars filled with formalin. Other objects on display range from deformed embryos, Siamese twins and a human Cyclops to a wonderful selection of pickled organs disfigured by terrible disease. Medical students and sadists may admire the swollen intestines and squalid tumours; 'normal' visitors may leave clutching their stomachs! Children under 16 are not allowed to enter the museum.
