Review & FAQ:
The Museum of Human Anatomy, opened by Tommaso Biancini in 1832, displays a collection of over 1,600 specimens. Visitors can expect to see anatomical statues, skulls, fetal skeletons, wax models, and prepared specimens. There are also Egyptian and Colombian mummies, and a wax death mask by Paolo Mascagni. Pisa, a university town since 1343, is home to other collections, such as the Pathological Anatomy Museum next door. It displays examples of how nature can sometimes go wrong – a two-headed baby chick with four legs, a six-legged dog, and other curiosities. The Veterinary Anatomy Museum displays anatomical models of animals. Similar examples are scattered throughout Pisa.
