Museums on the edge of insanity and brilliance.

Some of my favorite places on Earth are the House on the Rock, the Museum of Jurassic Technology and the Mütter Museum. Not only do these places have a massive bevy of bewildering curiosities, they are also rich in depth and full of small, standalone stories. Each require many, many hours to appreciate fully. What other unconventional places in the world feature an equivalent mix of amazement, craziness and depth?
