You can learn a lot at the Mutter, and it's worth a look. It has two floors and it doesn't take long to view the whole museum.

If you can handle it, then you will find yourself fascinated by this unusual museum. We spent a good deal of time there. In fact, when we visited we were staying at the Park Hyatt at... more
