Torture museum

Came upon the medieval torture museum while looking for things to do in the city. Kind of niche idea that is very well done. There is creepy music playing during the door and a variation of pictures and interactive exhibits. You can download the app to listen along to the audio, or scan a QR code to get to the webpage which was super user friendly & were were promptly helped by the front desk staff! Would definitely check it out again.
