Nonseum - A Museum For Inventions That Nobody Needs


Nonseum is a museum for crazy ideas and inventions that no one could really find a use for in real life. It is located in the small village of Herrnbaumgarten in Austria and was created in 1983 by Fritz Gall and Friedl Umscheid, two locals who decided to offer a home to exotic inventions that never really took off.

The idea came to them one day, while they were enjoying some beers, and saw a waitress turn over a stained table cloth, thus reusing it. That's when they realized everything, no matter how crappy it is, deserves a second chance. They established the Nonseum, a museum for useless inventions.
