Located inside the headquarters of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia, the Mutter has a wide range of wondrous and curious displays, including the skeleton of the tallest man in North America and the fused bones of Harry Eastlack, who died of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva, an extremely rare disorder in which the soft connective tissue of the body ossifies, painfully freezing the body in an immobile state. Easy to miss but worth poring over is the collection of 2000 objects removed from peoples throats, in attractive wooden pullout display drawers.

Also of particular interest are the conjoined twin skeletons, delicately displayed in various jaunty positions, and the plaster death cast of Chang and Eng. In America's most famous museum of medical oddities, many exhibits are still displayed in the same Victorian cabinets that the museum began with in 1858.

Join us at the Mutter Museum for a morning of curious medical anomalies and human anatomy. You will get to explore a selection of anatomical and pathological specimens displayed in the same Victorian cabinets that the museum opened with in 1858. From the skeleton of the tallest man in North America to a collection of 2,000 objects extracted from people's throats the exhibits will be sure to convey a lesser-known side of medical history. The first 12 visitors will get a special tour of the museum's back rooms.
