The Cooperative Orthotic and Prosthetic Enterprise runs this small, free visitor centre on the grounds of Mahosot Hospital. It is the most quietly devastating museum in Vientiane. Display cases show defused cluster bomb casings repurposed by farmers as flower pots, fence posts, and house stilts. Other rooms tell the stories of survivors maimed by submunitions decades after the war ended.
A short documentary film runs throughout the day. There is no charge for entry but donations fund prosthetic limbs and rehabilitation in rural areas. It is hard to leave without putting something in the box. Visit early in your trip — it changes how you read everything else.
