The Gettysburg Dime Museum is a recreation of a 19th-century Dime Museum.
Dedicated to the strange and curious, the Gettysburg Dime Museum exhibits a mixture of authentic and not-so-authentic artifacts, leaving it to the visitor to distinguish between the two.
Exhibits include animal anomalies, sideshow gaffs, crime and serial killer memorabilia, and life-size representations of human oddities, to name a few.
The Gettysburg Dime Museum’s primary goal is to entertain, not to educate.
If you learn anything, it’s your own fault!
In June of 2016, the Carpetbagger paid a visit to the Gettysburg Dime Museum. Check out his visit, recorded on YouTube ~
