Phallological Museum, Husavik, Iceland

This unique museum claims to be "probably the only museum in the world to contain a collection of phallic specimens belonging to all the various types of mammal found in a single country."

To put it simply, this museum has a lot of penises from Iceland.

The museum's collection contains 150 samples of penises and penile parts belonging to the land and sea mammals native to Iceland. Most specimens have been dried, salted or stuffed, and mounted on wooden platforms.

Largest of all the specimens are those from sperm whales. These penises apparently make good leather and it is said that Aristotle Onassis had the bar stools on his yacht "Christina" covered in whale penis leather.

Phallology is a serious science and the museum has over 140 honorary members who support its work.

The museum even has a gift shop offering novelty items such as a skipping rope with phallic handles, or a lampshade made out of bull scrotums.

Collection Highlights

Soon-to-be-donated human penis, rogue polar bear penis, sperm whale penises, seal and walrus phalluses, folkoric erotic artifacts and "practical utensils" related to the phallology.
