The Mutter Museum basically comprises three rooms, but it holds some of the more unusual items you may ever see. It's been about a year since I was there, and I still think of it as one of the first things to recommend to friends visiting Philadelphia...the ones who aren't squeamish of course, because the museum has all sorts of medical ...

This was listed on Travel Channel's top 10 wierdest places to visit. While staying in Baltimore, my boyfriend and I took the 2 hour drive up to philadelphia and visited the Mutter Museum. It's $10 admission fee was WELL worth it, if you like the wierd and medically interesting things you might see on the discovery channel or TLC. Things ...

The Mutter Museum, which houses the collection of the College of Physicians, si the best unknown spot for tourists in Philadelphia.

Established to help educate medical students, the museum is open to the public, and contains medical and physical oddities such as giant tumors and other real physical oddities, all housed in a respectful ...

As a 30+ year medical professional, this place is the most unique I've ever experienced. I've been back a second time because there is so much to absorb. Absolutely incredible and a must for anyone who is in medicine or who loves the bizarre.

While there are only a few rooms, the place is crammed full of the interesting, weird, and just downright creepy medical curiosities. It is not for casual browsing. But if you like examining and contemplating, and don't mind that some of this stuff was once part of a living person (or the whole person), then this is for you.

I loved the Mutter Museum. At first, its awkwardness and disturbances can throw you off guard (and it's not for the faint of heart!) but for those that can tolerate it, it is extremely fascinating and educational. It makes you open your eyes to some things out of this bubble we call normalcy.

the place has MANY WAX displays, very boring, they have many real skulls to many actually, and all the specimens are in this glass case that the glass is wavy and some of the real stuff they have is too low to the floor. They do not have any ramps for strollers to get in the place and once in to view the downstairs one room they have, you have to ...

I visited the museum the day before Halloween, so just observing the "types" of people going in was entertaining. This is the best place to explore if you work in health care or forensics or are just fascinated with anatomy, physiology, or pathology. The musuem had a great "American Medical History 101" (I made that up) section. ...

I went in with high expectations, after reading all the reviews, but ggrhhhh..... not worth it. most of the displays are wax models, and obviously very hard to believe all the stories behind them. I certainly appreciate the atmosphere, its cozy.... nice place to hang out on winters...
