The most curious museums in Europe


Museums are one of the main points of interest in any city, be they of art, history or any other theme. Today I would like to focus on the latter, curious museums They are not famous for others but they will certainly be worth knowing thanks to their originality. In them you will not find pictures of great painters or masterpieces of any sculptor, but you will certainly love to visit them.

Rare museums that in many cases only exist in those cities, and precisely that is what also makes them so special. Take note of the most curious in Europe:

Bread Museum


This museum is in Ulm (Germany), and in it you can discover all the details about the history of bread. An extensive exhibition with more than 18,000 objects, including pieces of bread from different parts of the world and old bakery machinery from all eras. Objects that are thousands of years old and that are wonderful.


Dog Collar Museum


It's in Leeds, in the Uido Kingdom, and is perfect for dog lovers. It is located in Leeds Castle and was inspired by the love that the last owner of the castle had for his dogs. In it there are more than 100 unique necklaces that are a real gem and that you will not be able to find anywhere else in the world.

Museum of Medieval Torture


It's in Prague and in it you can find a great variety of instruments and machinery that was used centuries ago for torture. More than 60 instruments that were used for the heretics to confess their treasons and sins. The visit lasts about 45 minutes and you can even see a tutorial to learn how each device works. The most successful is head crusher... I think you can imagine what they used it for.

Hair Museum


It's in Avanos, Turkey, and it is a small cave that houses hair strands of more than 16,000 women on its roof, each with a note detailing its origin. It seems creepy to me, typical of a movie with a serial killer that collects samples from its victims. It is one of the most famous in the region.
