Mütter Museum
The Mutter Museum is dedicated to highlighting the unique, and sometimes disturbing, medical instruments and techniques used in the past. You can explore skeletons and bones from humans, as well as doctor's tools that will make your skin crawl. While you may find some of the exhibits disturbing, the goal of the Mutter Museum is really to help people get over the uneasiness that is human anatomy, and understand how doctors, through trial and error, diagnosed and treated illness in the 19th century and beyond.
