Information

The facts

Mr. Toilet House is a toilet museum where the building itself resembles a toilet located in Suwon, South Korea.
The museum building was originally the house of Jae-duck Sim's mother's parents. Mr. Sim was the mayor of Suwon city (98~02).

Known as MR. Toilet, he was very fervent about improving the Korean toilet culture as well as playing a major role in establishing the World Toilet Association (WTA).

Mr. Sim re-built the house into a museum that looks like a toilet to celebrate the birth of WTA.

It was officially available for citizens starting from Oct, 2010.

The museum displays a variety of toilets including Roman, European and ancient Korean as well as fun facts about human waste.

It was recently mentioned in BBC and Reuters as "the world's first toilet theme park" on Nov, 2012.
