Bayernhof Music Museum, Musical instrument museum in O'Hara Township, US.
The collection includes self-playing musical instruments displayed inside a German-style mansion situated above the Allegheny River Valley.
Charles Brown III, founder of Gas-Lite Manufacturing Company, built this 19,000-square-foot mansion in 1982 and established the museum through his will in 2004.
The museum collection demonstrates the advancement of automated musical technology through numerous mechanical instruments from the 19th and 20th centuries.
