Reviews of The Dunedin Museum of Natural Mystery
T.I will definitely be recommending this to anyone and everyone, love collection of bones, dried/taxidermy specimens, local history, oddities and artwork, such an eclectic mix and it would take multiple trips to take it all in
L.Lovely little curiosity of Dunedin's eclectic art scene. Will not be appropriate for everyone but will be of interest to anyone with an interest in natural history or morbid curiosities. Well displayed and presented.
Holds various exhibitions from local artists and has artworks, books and sculptures available for sale.
Note there are limited hours due to it being in a private home and there is a $5 entry fee.
L.I like this place very very much! so lucky I am the only visitor the morning I visited, and nice talk to the owner of this museum, he is nice and gentle. When he heard I was a medical student, he said this place was a favorite of medical school students because we all love bones, absolutely true! haha...
120% recommended!
K.Super interesting place to visit. Lots of different pieces to meet many areas of interest. I particularly loved the jar of monarch butterflies.
A.One of Dunedin's absolute hidden treasure troves of oddities and curiosities! ...from the moment you walk into this tiny homage to the quirky and strange you feel drawn to its amazing bones and sculptures, art and displays. Must see!
M.An absolutely amazing and truly unique experience. This collection of natural mysteries is such a case sui generis and bizarre in the most positive way that it is a wonderful piece of art in itself. Highly recommended!
E.Artist, collector, researcher, curator Bruce Mahalski has created New Zealand's most curious and interesting private museum. Inside an 1870s Otago cottage are rooms of natural and unnatural history, and many objects and stories of pure mystery, mixed with art and chimerical relics. Go see for yourself, after all, you are an animal too...
G.Great displays of biological interest & also PNG & African material and a wide variety of art objects created by the homeowner, Bruce Mahalski, who previously worked as an art tutor at Inverlochy House, Te Aro, Wellington. Bruce has painted a number of wildlife murals around Dunedin.
M.Amazing! Highly recommended for anyone with a love of unusual things.
P.Thoughtfully curated by Dunedin artist Bruce Mahalski, the museum is a must-see if you're visiting the city. It's open Friday to Sunday, but apparently it is possible to contact Bruce to see if he can make it happen. And at $5 it's a great price for a great experience.
It's not your usual museum, but houses an unusual array of ethnic and biological displays that range from the wierd to the bizarre to the fascinating but always interesting - all in three rooms of Bruce's house.
Definitely worth a visit and only a few minutes walk from George Street in downtown Dunedin.
