About

The only museum of its kind in the entire world, the Mini Bottle Gallery in Norway is the largest collection of miniature bottles on the planet. There are more than 53,000 bottles on display in 50 different installations spread throughout a three-story building.

There are bottles filled with fruit and berries, bottles filled with worms and bottles filled with mice, just to name some of the exhibits you'll find in the museum. Most of the bottles on display are filled with various beers and liquors as the place is owned by an eccentric, wealthy brewer who just happens to like miniature bottles stuffed with various items.

The museum also has a slide that leads down into the "Horror Room," where you can find even more - you guessed it - bottles.
