Vienna Museum of Criminalistics

In Vienna, on the street Grosse Sperlgasse, 24 is an unusual museum with high ceilings in narrow dark rooms, which evokes a sense of despondency, inner fear, longing. This is a forensics museum. It was opened in 1991 in the building of a former old mansion. For some, the main theme of the museum's exposition is crime, as well as the criminal justice system using concrete evidence, which seems intriguing and interesting. There are always people who want to visit this museum.

Among the skull exhibits are weapons, black and white photographs of crime victims, fingerprints, stories of atrocities committed, enclosed in countless volumes of criminal cases. Also here you can see the tools of crime, starting from the XX century, such as forks, keys which opened safes, doors, locks, masking makeup, gloves and much more.

Traveling here, through the gloomy halls with their depressing atmosphere, every visitor involuntarily thinks about the fate of both criminals and their victims. In general, the depressing impression of viewing the exhibition of the museum of forensics does not leave anyone indifferent.
