Seek entry into the Mutter Museum
Buy the ticket by paying the set admission fees and enter the premises. On entering, you can start exploring the place. Make sure you see the display of Chang and Eng, the well known Siamese twins. A plaster cast showing their conjoining at the liver was taken at the autopsy and helps ambitious physicians comprehend their anomaly.
Then look at the Soap Lady, a woman whose skin mixed with the ground when she was buried and gave her skin identical properties off that of soap. After that, check Joseph Hyrtl’s accumulation of skulls. Remember to note the different anomalies, injuries and deformities. Also examine the collection of 2000 things taken from throats without surgery. -
