Interesting and the exhibition is very well presented. Wonderful place to and especially if you want to add to the number of countries you have visited. The museum has a history of restraint and torture going back to the middle aged. There are many wonderful things in the world. When many people live on the same mountain. For example - San Marino, where we were in 2013. Interesting museum to visit, however, it is very small and you're easily done within 30 minutes. If you're into this kind of dark history, it's worth a visit. The woman at the reception was also very helpful. Nevertheless, I personally don't think it's worth the 9 euros entrance fee. Small but interesting museum on medieval instruments of torture. Not for the faint-hearted. Descriptions are in italian, english, french, and german. They explain how the instruments were used and give some historical context. It's very informative (sometimes too much). There aren't that many gorry pictures but the descriptions are explicit enough. It's not for everybody! Good education though. Makes you think how people didn't value life and enjoyed somebody else's suffering. Definitely worth visiting. Three and a half floors of exposition with detailed describing help you understand what actually good times we live in. Full ticket costs 8,5 Eur. Though "criminology" in museum's name might be misleading, it is mostly about torture - inquisition, cultural, etc. A little bit frightening for kids under 7 years, but my son who is 9 years old was excited. Recommend to for the familiarisation with dark side of history. I don't think it can be called a museum if the information is not correct. They lost all credibility in my eyes when they included an iron maiden - which has been proven to be a made up piece of fiction that didn't actually exist in middle ages. The mute's bridle was also not used as they describe. Those are just the examples I know already, but they make me not trust any of the other information in the museum. It seems to me money was invested in this place to make it look cool but not into actual research. It's not hard to get this stuff right. Edit in response to the owner: maybe the information is there in Italian, but not in the other languages. Non-Italian speaking tourists are paying the same price as the Italian speaking ones, we should get the same amount of information. Little Museum on 3 floors.Very Interesting to see and read the historic facts. 8.50 Euro entrance is OK. No toilets in the Museum. It was pretty empty when I was there (compared to the packed city) but it was definitely worth it, it's not very big though and my look about 30 minutes quite small, probably 30-40 min if you read everything, but well organized with plenty of descriptions and objects. Not a joke, anyway: objects and descriptions can make you really feel sad and horrified for the amount of cruelty and sadism that human has demonstrated to be capable of.
