Torture devices throughout Europe are on display here. All these horrid inventions with straps, spikes, weights blades made to extract confessions are sure to make anyone talk
Its cheap entry & a bit grusome.
My friend wasn't too keen to pose with his head under the gilloutine so we just peered through instead - not quite the same!! Boring Leave a Comment

 The Torture Museum, Amsterdam,
The Netherlands by Nick_GreekLeave a Comment Phone: +31-20-3206642

Unfortunately I did not see this museum as I was getting late for my return train but I really wanted to. It is situated on the bank of singel canal opposite to the backside of the flower market in Amsterdam. It exhibits a collection of devices used for torturing people collected from across europe and includes a guillotine that i always wanted to see, not that i fancy it at all. But apart from being late already, I should admit that i was also a bit afraid of going in and seeing things with my own eyes. OK to hear, but it would have been difficult for me to see them.

 A unique collection of
implements by wayne0k
It was interesting to note that the museum made a point of explaining that these devices were not necessarily used by the likes of individuals such as the modern day criminals and murderers John Wayne Gacy, or Gary Heidnik, but rather these were put to use by the churches and government agencies responsible for maintaining the local standards of morality.

 Very Nasty by kenbac
It chronicles man's brutality and inhumanity towards fellow men and women.
There is a very extensive collection of implements of torture and pictures of the torture actually taking place.
It might not be to everyone's liking, but one can't deny history or the evil that has been perpetrated by men in the past.
Well worth a visit. Leave a Comment Directions: From the rear of the Royal Palace walk along the Raadhuistraat.The Singel is the first Canal you come to.

A little bit boring museum, and it is hard to belive that all these things was used in old days to kill and torture people... Leave a Comment
