In an attempt to entice you in to the Wax Museum, there are a few statues on display at the entrance. The statue of Pope Benedict XVI is on a rotating wheel which he shares with the Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp....but only one figure at a time is visible as the wheel turns. The lifesized wax Pope is depicted is in his liturgical gown...white robe, red shirt and red stole. He is smiling and clasping his hands in front himself.
