Lonely Planet review for Wiener Kriminalmuseum

The Vienna Crime Museum is another interesting chapter in the Viennese obsession with death. It takes a tabloid-style look at crimes and criminals in Austria and dwells on murders in the last 100 years or so with particularly grisly relish; there are skulls of earlier criminals, and even an 18th-century head pickled in a jar. Other displays include death masks of convicted murderers and weapons supposedly used to carry out the murders.
