Florence… one of the most beautiful Italian cities!
Full of history, art, monuments, museums… every piece, every corner tells a little story of the city.
But perhaps not everyone knows that, in the historic district, walking down Via Cavour, precisely the number 51, you can find one of the most disturbing museums: the Serial Killer Museum.
The Criminal Museum of Florence, one of a kind, proposes a ‘chilling’ reconstruction of true stories, biographies and detailed studies about the sick mind of psychopaths in every time and place.
Statues by Tuscan artists show us the physical appearance of the notorious killers, often the appearance myths to attract the unsuspecting victim in the cruel network, where several video slide pictures of little censorship of events occurring, cards ‘techniques’ of psychopaths authors every terrible detail.
The visitor’s entry into the museum is equipped with an mp3 player that will be the audio guide in the flow between the gruesome human stories.
Gilles De Rais, the bloody countess, Jack the Ripper, Ted Bundy, the clown murderess, Albert Fish, Charlie Manson and his wicked followers, but also nostrani Donato Libra, the saponified by Correggio, the rambo of Turin and many other wild characters you meet along the halls of this particular museum, which aims to give a psychological reading than fiction, the phenomenon of serial murder.
Just after, the shocking tour comes to a room dedicated to the tools used for the execution and where they are described in detail, the way that humanity is barbarism that impose the death penalty to anyone, unfortunately still present in theme around the world.
A virtual tour of about an hour, around the dark world of crime that has inspired many famous films and black filled the news pages of all time.
Have fun and … good luck during your trip!
