If you’re looking for something interesting to do in the coming weeks, you might want to check out some of the incredible museums in the Hatfield, Pennsylvania, area. You’re sure to find a museum that interests everyone in your family. Here are a couple of interesting options that you don’t want to miss.
Hatfield Museum and Historical Society
This museum specializes in local history and opened in 1991. A new building is currently being built, so if you’ve already been here, it could be worth it to go again to see the new space. As of November 2019, most of the construction and interior work has been finished.
The Mutter Museum
Once you’ve seen all the Hatfield Museum has to offer, you should make your way south towards Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. There you’ll find the Mutter Museum. If you’re a fan of medical history, this is certainly the place to be, but it’s still plenty of fun if you aren’t a follower of the nation’s many interesting medical museums. Two of the most popular attractions at the museum are the skeleton of the tallest man who ever lived in the U.S. and some of the fused bones of Harry Eastlack, whose connective tissue ossified and froze him in place.
While you may not have heard of Harry Eastlack, you probably have heard of a man named Albert Einstein. Some of his brain is housed and on display at the Mutter Museum.
There are plenty of fun and exciting museums in the Hatfield, Pensylvania, area if you know where to look. Check out the Hatfield Museum or the Mutter Museum the next time you’re looking for educational fun.
