Arranged mechanical-music and hidden-passage museum tours
Visit automatic music machines and concealed passages in a purpose-built house museum
Bayernhof Museum
Bayernhof offers advance-arranged guided visits through a house containing automatic musical instruments, concealed doorways and a constructed cave passage. The tour description includes listening to selected music machines as the group moves through the building. This is an unusual collection outing, not a private reception venue; the museum and its John Schneider Loresch Foundation are one operator.
Current location note / listed area: Pittsburgh area, Pennsylvania; museum visits by advance appointment
