Potter's Wax Museum, St. Augustine, Florida, United States
Potter's Wax Museum, St. Augustine, Florida, United States The inspiration behind Potter's Wax Museum came from a childhood trip to London taken by founder, George L. Potter. As a child, he was mesmerized by the life like figures and wanted to share his enjoyment with the American public.
In 1947, Potter began contracting with GEMS of London, a noted wax studio, to create one of a kind figures for his museum. Potter employed artists from all over Europe to aide in this project with the wax imported from France, hair from Italy, and the sculpting taking place in Belgium. Opening it's doors in 1949, Potter's Wax Museum has served as an interactive, educational and fun attraction for visitors to the ancient city.
At Potter's, you can interact with historic figures such as, Ponce de Leon, Albert Einstein, and Princess Diana, take a picture with Michael Jordon or Angelina Jolie; or imagine you are on set with Harry Potter and "He Who Must Not Be Named."

Unfortunately half of the wax statues doesn’t look like the real people. The place is very small and and some of the wax statues doesn’t have nothing to do with history like “Franklinstain”and “The monster of the black lagoon” ????????????????????????

I enjoyed seeing all the lifelike figures of history and present time. It’s a small place but informative. If kids are interested in history this is a great place to bring them. I would visit again.
