The Mummy Museum or also known as the Museo de las Momias de Guanajuato, this museum in Mexico is home to mummies. Because the mummies shown are mummified naturally, they look a little gloomy than the mummies excavated at Egpyt.
It is said that there are more than a hundred mummies on display in the museum, most of whom are residents of Guanajuato from 1850-1950. Interestingly, this museum also has the smallest mummy in the world on display.
