Bones

There is a taxidermy collection in my town, and I went to see it for the first time last Sunday. It was very fascinating but some of the items rather belonged in a cabinet of curiosities.
Made me feel too queasy to complete a proper sketch (Scroll all the way down to see it).
I left again after half an hour of being stared in the neck by human skeletons.

However, I can recommend it for sketch outings as the admission is free. One can sit quite undisturbed and sketch. Just remember to bring your own small folding stool.

Opening hours are 11 am to 5 pm on Sundays only.

  1. Vielen Dank Monika für die tolle Dokumentation. Ich mag ja solche "altbackenen" Museen, wo Schildchen noch von Hand geschrieben sind "Präparate sind giftig..." :-D Unglaublich auch wie die beiden Löwenfälle in dieser Schrankvitrine hübsch drappiert aufgehängt sind!
    Wahrlich keine angenehme Umgebung für Zartbesaitete.
