The Collezione delle Cere Anatomiche "Luigi Cattaneo" in Bologna is a fascinating museum that houses a collection of 19th-century anatomical wax models. Created by talented artists like Clemente Susini and Bolognese modellers, these intricate wax figures showcase variations, malformations, and diseases in a visually striking way - so doctors (or aspiring doctors!), this one's for you! Visitors can explore dried specimens alongside the wax models, providing a unique insight into the study of anatomy during that period. It's a cool spot for those interested in medical history!
