The 27 wax bodies and 1500 part and organ studies that make up the museums collection are presented here; from skeletons to vein structures, organs to nerves, and arteries to the delicate pores of the skin, the human body is mapped out in meticulous and exacting detail. Texts explaining the human anatomy in laypersons terms and exploring the historical and cultural significance of the wax figures complete this total body experience. ER -
