Trundle Manor: House of Oddities

Pittsburgh’s most nefarious tourist trap and house of oddities is located 10 minutes from downtown in the suburb of Swissvale. It is home to the private collection of Mr Arm and Velda Von Minx. Trundle Manor is featuring both vintage and crypto- taxidermy, antique weaponry and medical tools, wet specimens in jars, steampunk sculptures, art created by the residents, secret passageways, coffins, and much more. Trundle Manor has given tours to over 3,000 people since 2010. Open by appointment only and tours are donation based. But, donations of liquor and additions to the collection are happily accepted as well!
