7. Pig Museum, Stuttgart Germany

Yes, a Pig Museum. This one features more than 50,000 pig-related artifacts organized into 25 thematic rooms. Lovers of swinish art, kitsch and culture will enjoy a visit to the pig museum, housed in Stuttgart’s former slaughterhouse. The site also boasts a beer garden and a restaurant.

6. The Hammer Museum, Haines Alaska

For folks interested in the history of tools (specifically, hammers), this museum is a must-visit. From sculptures of hammers to a history of hickory hammer handle making (say that three times fast), the Hammer Museum also sells souvenir hammers so visitors can bring a little bit of the fun back home after their stay.
