Houston, TX - National Museum of Funeral History

Another relatively large city, Houston, Texas, is home to the National Museum of Funeral History. This peculiar attraction documents the history of funeral services in the U.S. Visitors can learn about the different practices and how they've changed over time. The museum also has an extensive collection of coffins and hearses. The museum's website says that visitors can also learn about presidential funerals, memorials across the country, and the history of mourning photography.
