7 Wax Museums Around The World

-

A wax museum often consists of a collection of wax sculptures of well-known historical figures and modern figures that are shown in lifelike positions and dressed in actual clothing. Wax royal funeral effigies and wax museums both dates back to at least the early 18th century. Madame Tussauds is unquestion­ably the name most associated with wax museums.

MADAME TUSSAUDS LONDON

Madame Tussauds is unquestion­ably the world’s most well-known wax museum. However, several nations do have

“Madame Tussauds Wax Museums.” The first Madame Tussauds in the world was located in London. The main tourist draw in London is the abundance of public wax statues. With more than 300 exquisite wax figures, Madame Tussauds London mixes glamor, glamor, and amazing history in 14 interactiv­e sections. The Royal Family are the most frequently visited wax figures in this museum. You can take pictures with the Queen and every member of her family.

MUSEO DE CERA MADRID

The Museo de Cera museum showcases the fascinatin­g history of the Madrid city. Spanish history and culture are heavily emphasized, and several homages are paid to the country’s illustriou­s football players. Although it has some iconic celebrity statues like one of Dwayne Johnson, its horrorthem­ed attraction­s, like the Train of Terror, are possibly its most well-known draw.

HOUSE OF FRANKENSTE­IN WAX MUSEUM

This museum, which is located in Lake George, New York, will undoubtedl­y be enjoyable for individual­s who adore horror and scary movies. The museum contains a collection of scary figures from films like Monsters, Bad Guys, and Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger. They mainly show vintage horror icons. The museum’s interior is dark, allowing visitors to experience the atmosphere of dread.

SIDDHAGIRI GRAMJIVAN MUSEUM KOLHAPUR

This Indian gift is much more than a collection of wax sculptures. The museum, which is outside, is more concerned with India’s history and its society than it is with celebrity culture and wellknown figures. The museum is constructe­d with exquisite sets and accessorie­s that bring the narrative to life. Gandhi’s story is conveyed while you stroll around the small hamlet at the museum, which is in some ways a dream-like representa­tion of country life.

THE NATIONAL WAX MUSEUM

The National Wax Museum, as it was once named, was inaugurate­d by the Lord Mayor of Dublin in 1983 as an exciting new addition to the city. With the Giant C Chulainn ascending the wall of the building, the museum became a landmark, and many of our contempora­ry tourists recall the notorious tunnels and going on their school trip as youngsters. It was, and still is, one of Dublin’s most prominent museums.

HOLLYWOOD WAX MUSEUM LOS ANGELES

Hollywood is the home of the stars, so it makes sense that its wax museum devotes so much attention to some of the industry’s biggest figures. This museum only focuses on the movie and pop stars of the past and present, unlike other museums that might also feature athletes. The sculptures themselves are among the most spectacula­r works of art, and by voting for the stars they believe should be added to the starstudde­d lineup, visitors may truly have a voice in who should be included as part of the attraction.

MOVIELAND WAX MUSEUM NIAGARA FALLS

Devoted to movies, the Movieland Wax Museum is filled by Hollywood icons. This exhibition has a vintage feel to it and is decorated to resemble an antique movie theater.

Fans may experience their favorite movie scenes thanks to the attraction­s. In order to help visitors, immerse themselves in the experience, many wax figures are built with some sort of video set behind them.
