Facilities

The Mütter Museum moved to its current location at 22nd and Ludlow Street in Philadelphia since 1909. It occupies a land lot of 31,495.28 square feet (2,926.007 m²) with a frontage of 171 feet (52 m) in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood of Center City, Philadelphia. The museum is one half-block south of 22nd Street Station, which is serviced by the SEPTA subway–surface trolley lines. It is also within walking distance of Suburban Station, serviced by SEPTA Regional Rail, and 30th Street Station, serviced by the trolleys, regional rail, and the Market–Frankford Line. The museum lacks its own parking lot, but two general use paid lots are located nearby on Market Street and on 21st Street, respectively.
