    Looks like a good place to visit. Certainly an excellent portrayal of the history of mental health care since the early days to the present time, not to mention the unspeakable treatments that were meted out on the unfortunate victims of mental illness. Straitjackets, cold water baths, lobotomy, ect and confinement sometimes in so called padded cells, just to name a few. Seems like a most interesting museum, though I can't say I have ever been.
