The museum first opened in France, and they have been sculpting people around the world for 250 years. The Funkhouse Backpacker’s hostel in Sydney offers a great place to stay in King’s Cross and easy access to the museum.

How it all started...

Madame Tussand was born in France and opened a museum to celebrate the accomplishments of people who represented prominent amongst leaders in the world. The museum underwent several attempts to destroy the art work, neither through war or natural disasters, yet it survived. The museums eventually began to gain enough popularity and admiration that they opened several more throughout the world. Extending beyond France helped the museum maintain popularity throughout the tourism industry.

Famous Darling Harbour

Special events host parties and exhibit newly sculptured displays. Attractions of young, elderly, artistic, and curious people lead wax sculptures from a non-life form into the image of a living person. The museum offers close observation and explanation of the creations. A tour of the museum costs a fee, and there are plenty of things to see.
