B	Britney Spears on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Would have loved it if it was animatronic!
N	Netanel Sananes on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Cool exhibitions that are showing vividly the horrifying historic of torments in vienna and Europe between the 15-18 centuries.
S	Sahar Mejdi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Called to ask if they take card or cash. The lady on the phone got mad at me for asking this and hung up on me mid call. She said „is this what you’re calling me for ?“ in an aggressive manner. Never ever visiting this museum. Not worth It.
d	dancing style amusement on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ it was a interesting tour, located in a bunker of the WWII, just quite small, was expected bigger, we had fun
J	John Davison on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice little exhibit. 6 euro is a little pricey but still nice.
K	Karin Kloss Talavera on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great place, great info. It just looked a bit "unattended". Just a few of the information boards were in English so you would have to know German to read about the different torture methods.
D	Daniel Hannih on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ They call it the biggest torture museum in Europe, but honestly this can’t be true. The entrance is barely noticeable. But what’s cool about the entrance, once you go down, it’s getting cold and kind of creepy. So you’re getting into the mood of entering a torture. Useful. The price is bit overpriced for the size. They have a handful of torture devices there but all the information is in german. So I would not recommend going there if you aren’t speaking German.
B	Bohemia Blue on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I liked the museum, for the fact that it raises awareness of general public on torture, which, sadly, is still practiced nowadays. The museum has only a few rooms though, and the explanations printed next to the items presented are only in German. You can get a guide in English, but it is more like a general presentation of torture over times. You can buy that guide at the end for 2 EUR, in case you want to keep it. At the entrance they have a few souvenirs, if you like, for example, ashtrays or cups or small shot glasses with skuls. If it would be just a bit bigger, this museum could become a trully great atraction. When we visited the museum, in the first room there was an exposition then in last room some videos, both the exposition and videos from Amnesty International, made to raise awarenes, once more, on torture still being practiced nowadays, and on death penalty still existing in some countries.
