Lonely Planet review

A somewhat morbid air pervades this collection of horse-drawn hearses (and a few motorised ones) used in the city from the 18th century until the 1950s. Some are decked out with life-size model horses and mannequins of funeral company folk in full VIP gear of yesteryear.

The funeral company that runs this rather lugubrious museum claims it is the biggest of its kind in the world.
