In September 1998, the historic 100 year old San Francisco landmark that was The Wax Museum Entertainment Complex for 35 years, was torn down to make way for a new $15 million, 100,000 square foot showplace. The Spring 2000 Grand Opening introduced a galaxy of bright new stars, as well as an exciting variety of major retail, dining and entertainment venues.

The design of the New Wax Museum building was inspired by traditional San Francisco architecture, and features spectacular domes, ornate bay windows, ornamental metalwork and complex roof lines, all enhanced by the artistic use of brick, stucco, metal and glass to lend a fresh, new appeal to the much beloved unique San Francisco style.

As one of the world's largest wax museums, the fully restored San Francisco attraction will continue to show all aspects of life from the ignoble Chamber of Horrors to the inspiring Hall of Religion, including the historic Library of U.S. Presidents, the spectacular Recreation of King Tut's Tomb and the unique Palace of Living Art, where the world's most famous masters, and their masterpieces come to life through the magic of wax artistry.

Among both foreign and domestic visitors, the most popular part of the wax museum tour is The Gallery of Stars. While the museum is closed for construction, artisans are busy producing a galaxy of brand new stars, such as Leonardo Di Capiro and Will Smith, who will join such classics as Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe and John Wayne.
