Boerhaave Museum


Leiden has an excellent science museum tucked away in a small street behind Harlemmerstraat. Its hidden location and modest exterior belies its relatively large interior containing many fascinating exhibits that cover anatomy, anthropology, physics, zoology. There is a strong focus on Newton, and a strong attempt to link the town of Leiden to Newtown's nurturing and scientific progress.


Three great minds, regardless of skull shape or size.
The "Hottentot": Only one song comes to mind.
Still cool, even in death.
