At the entrace to the Kunastkamera Museum

This had been dubbed a "museum of curiosities" so of course we had to go! We couldn't take photos but we did get to see an entire room full of deformed babies in jars, severed appendages, and so on in the "anatomy collection." Ick. This photo actually shows a statue from Sri Lanka.

The Soviets decided not to destroy this statue because it was the only one in Europe (the world?) where the entire weight of the statue is supported by only two of the horse's legs.
