Mütter Museum


A Victorian medical museum
The College of Physicians of Philadelphia
19 South 22nd Street
Philadelphia, PA 19103
+1 215 563 3737 ext. 242

In 1849 the College of Physicians of Philadelphia started a collection of unusual medical specimens for the study of pathological forensics. Today, it's become fair to say this might be the best collection of medical oddities on display to the public, including such things as President Grover Cleveland's tumor (removed successfully), an exhibit on conjoined twins, and obsolete medical instruments. There are also plenty of skeletons and things in jars. This is a popular spot for teenagers to go on a date, though the College emphasizes, rightly, that this is a serious collection for scientific research. Admission is USD12 for adults, USD8 for children 6-17, seniors, and students, and free for children under 6.
