Visiting Bayernhof Mechanical Music Museum
By Claudia Molinari

I most wholeheartedly agree with Wes Neff that this museum is well worth 
a view.  I went in 2017 (since they have a Molinari monkey organ there) 
and we had a tour of this fantastic home.  There are a number of 
mechanical music items there that I had never seen before.  

The docent gave us a wonderful tour of the home and demonstration of the 
music items.  Even on that cold December day, we were able to appreciate 
the view across the river of that area of Pennsylvania.  

It is worth the trip.  The downside to it is that they take only a few 
people through at a time, and the tour lasts several hours, but if you 
are in the Pittsburgh area and can make arrangements to do so, you will 
not be disappointed:  https://www.bayernhofmuseum.com/
