Worth the Visit
The museum is only open at certain times, as with the reenactment it only goes every half hour. So you may have to wait a bit if you arrive at the wrong time. We arrived right when a giant school group was arriving and I think the front desk woman was stressed about the kids as she was extremely rude to us. However, when we returned she was nicer. The reenactment was great, and there was such important history to view and remember as you walk through the rest of the museum.

Very informative!
Really loved this tour. The first half was a live recreation of a witch trial and the second half was a tour of the recreation of a dungeon. The time was just long enough - about 45 minutes. While some of the statues in the basement were outdated, the creepiness of them actually added to the tour. Our guide was very knowledgable and we appreciated that she dove into some historical context of the witch trials and the belief system to the people at the time. Kids were entertained too.
