"House of Wax: Anatomical, Pathological, and Ethnographic Waxworks from Castan's Panopticum, Berlin, 1869-1922"

Berlin’s famed Panopticum used to be one of the world’s most fabulous macabre showcases, with wax reproductions as well as human specimens that graphically showed syphilis-infected organs, digestive tracks and other startling phenomena, along with taxidermy and “death masks” of famous mass murderers. Relive the grim glory of the faded freak show at this exhibit, which invites you to take a literal look inside.
